CITRIS and the New Year 2010
– CITRIS Director Paul Wright delivers a message for the New Year –
CITRIS is a symbol of everything wonderful that the UC system offers
the world in terms of education, research, and service. Several hundred
graduate and undergraduate students on four campuses are funded by the
national and international extra-mural grants that are brought into the
UC system because of CITRIS. Our work covers energy, water, healthcare,
and infrastructures and, by being multi-disciplinary, our students come
from all walks of life.
