Universal Basic Mobility Pilot Programs In California

This website highlights evaluation studies of UBM pilots in Oakland and Bakersfield, CA. The evaluations considered how the mobility services provided in each pilot were utilized by participants, impacts on participants’ lives, and best practices for UBM program design and administration. 

Systems Support Group

The Systems Support Group provides IT service to the Computer Science department of UC Davis, and is partnered with the College of Engineering IT Shared Services.

Distance Learning Program

UC Davis Distance Learning Program (DLP) classes are available to Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). Typically, full-time staff at LLNL enroll in one course per quarter; thus, a master’s degree program takes approximately three years and a doctoral degree program takes approximately five to six years to complete.

Prosthesis Embodiment Through Intuitive Technology

P E T I T is a multidisciplinary consortium at UC Davis with backgrounds in mechanical and aerospace engineering, neuroengineering, neuroscience, neurobiology, biomedical engineering, physical and occupational therapy, prostheses, physical medicine and rehabilitation, orthopaedic surgery and plastic surgery. Our unified goal is to help our limb loss patients attain prosthesis embodiment: the consideration of a prosthesis not as a mere extension of the body, but instead as a part of the patient's self and identity.

Electric Vehicle Research Center

The Center collaborates closely with California utilities, automakers, regulators, and other research institutions such as the Electric Power Research Institute and Argonne National Lab on research aimed at developing a sustainable market for plug-in vehicles.
