The Education Abroad Program (EAP) and Capital Internship Program (CIP) are UC Santa Barbara’s pipelines to global and civic leadership. Whether studying in one of 40+ countries or interning in Washington, D.C. and Sacramento, our students gain a transformative perspective that shapes their careers and lives forever. This experiential learning is more than a classroom extension—it is a profound exploration of identity, culture, and professional ambition in entirely new settings.
Support from alumni, friends, and parents like you makes these dreams a reality. Sadly, each year, some students are accepted into these programs and then have to withdraw due to financial need. Let’s work together this UCSB Give Day to empower the next generation of global citizens and provide the resources our students need to succeed on the world stage.
