Academic Enrichment

Cluster Field Trips
Field trips offer COSMOS students behind-the-scenes access to many regional resources utilized by UCSD researchers. Weekly field trips will vary between clusters.

Enrichment Sessions
On certain days, students will have the opportunity to participate in enrichment activities. These may include round-table discussions, study groups, and advising activities. The Teacher Fellows will guide each student in his or her cluster to select appropriate sessions to attend.

Discovery Lecture Series
Renowned scientists and engineers will hold talks on a wide range of research topics. These talks focus on current research in the speaker's field and are designed to introduce students to a broad spectrum of subjects, expanding their learning outside of their cluster topics. They will take place each Tuesday of the summer session and are supported by the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2).
