A college degree can take you anywhere. UCTV's Mi Universidad video program series provide an inside look at college-going from the perspectives of Latinx/Chicanx students, alumni, and parents. Programs share practical information and resources from experts in higher education to help current and incoming students thrive.
Key takeaways from UC San Diego’s 2026 China Forum held in August offer insight into AI competition, economic ties and the forces reshaping relations between the two countries.
UC San Diego hosted the Carnaval of New Latinx Musicals, a national showcase bringing artists and theatre leaders together to uplift new work and explore how music, movement and lived experience can expand the stories represented on the American stage.
More than 70 students were inducted into the pharmacy profession at UC San Diego Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences’ 2026 White Coat ceremony.
The ceremonial donning of the white coat marks the beginning of a new chapter. As the 140 new medical students received their white coats on August 27, the ceremony became a celebration of the people, experiences and aspirations that brought each student to medicine.
Computer science researchers developed and tested a device that, if plugged into a hardwired communications channel connecting two key flight computers, can take over communications between these computers. The proof-of-concept attack suggests that physical access to an aircraft’s computer bay under the nose of the plane is a cybersecurity risk that should be considered. The device needs to be plugged into a port inside the plane’s belly – an action that the researchers estimate would take under 60 seconds. This would require access to the aircraft either when parked at a gate or when in an airport hangar during regular maintenance. Access to these areas is controlled carefully but not always successfully. The researchers successfully demonstrated the attack on a testbed made of actual Boeing 737 airplane parts and airplane software.
