UC San Diego exists on the edge: of a continent, of a country, and on the leading-edge of possibilities. It’s no surprise then that our students and scholars make a regular habit of breaking boundaries and pushing past borderlines. Located a short 30 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border, we have a front row seat to both the complex challenges facing border communities — as related to health, energy, environment and mobility — and an exciting array of opportunities. Join us for “Crossing Borders: Exploring San Diego’s Dynamic Binational Region” and explore the myths and realities of our vibrant region.
