As a student-centered, research-focused, service-oriented public university, institutional training grants embody the very spirit of UC San Diego, providing high-impact educational experiences through hands-on research training. Training grants are extramural programs that provide funding and training for undergraduates, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and/or clinical residents. UC San Diego currently hosts over 75 formal training grants, including 68 National Institutes of Health (NIH) training grants, led by nearly 1,500 dedicated PD/PIs and faculty mentors. These NIH programs support over 291 predoctoral students and 150 postdocs annually, as well as 64 short-term trainees.
