The CITRIS Workforce Innovation Program helped UC students pursue world-changing research and accelerate their careers.

From 2021–25, CITRIS Workforce Innovation offered select University of California students — including undergraduates from all majors at UC Berkeley, UC Davis, UC Merced and UC Santa Cruz — the opportunity to inform their career decisions through eight-week paid internships in areas of emerging IT innovation. While building in-demand skills through on-the-job experience, participants also received training in leadership and project management, and were supported by dedicated CITRIS staff, as well as a community of peers.
