During the summer program at UC Davis, EEGAP scholars will live in comfortable, up-to-date campus housing, with a meal plan, accident coverage, access to UC Davis’ superb student recreation facilities, and a rented bicycle.
Davis, a college town centrally located in northern California, has convenient public transportation to Sacramento and San Francisco for weekend excursions. For those who seek outdoor recreation, Davis has miles of bike paths, pleasant trails for walking and running, and a UC Davis student organization, Outdoor Adventures, that provides guided weekend excursions to the coast and mountains.
Davis’ Mediterranean climate and location near the Sacramento River Delta generally lead to warm, dry days with a cool evening breeze. Residents enjoy summer concerts both outdoors and at the Mondavi Center, a Farmer’s Market that has received national recognition, and downtown conveniently near the UC Davis campus.
