ResearchWell
Research
ResearchWell supports Semel HCI pods and Semel HCI-funded student groups with research and evaluation needs, works to identify campus wide data sets that inform Semel HCI policies and programs, and explores internal and external partnerships/funding opportunities to conduct research.
Research Grants
ResearchWell provides technical assistance and funding to student groups who implemented projects aimed to improve the health of the campus community. These student groups used the information they acquired from ResearchWell’s workshops to evaluate their programs, projects, and events and to create posters on their projects, which were presented at HCI’s Annual Celebration.
Semel HCI seeks to fund student groups to implement high quality, replicable, and sustainable projects that will help to make UCLA a healthier community.
