DEI-HDT Social Entrepreneurship Initative

What is HDT Social Entrepreneurship Initiative?

The HDT Social Entrepreneurship aims to engage undergraduate students from across the UC Davis campus in multi-disciplinary teams to develop COVID-19 solutions in partnership with campus and community organizations. Students are encouraged to work on projects related to improving campus responses to COVID or on serving the needs of diverse communities through working with community organizations in Davis.
