About DIMAP:

Undergraduates admitted to DIMAP are typically seniors in excellent academic standing committed to two-quarters of research. Students who complete the program will receive a distinction (which appears on their transcript). The department will recognize the students and their mentors at the end-of-year department awards ceremony. For more information, visit: https://cs.ucsb.edu/education/undergraduate/special-programs

About ERSP:

ERSP is a year-long research apprenticeship program designed to support students' first research experience. The program seeks to give students, particularly those who are traditionally underrepresented in computing, the foundational knowledge, and skills for engaging in research in the discipline. Students work in a team (of typically four peers) with a faculty on a project related to computing that ties into the faculty's research area. For more information, visit: https://ersp.cs.ucsb.edu/
