add contentUCSD's numerous programs, within entrepreneurship, innovation, engineering, and business, all share significant ties to regional industries and companies. In many cases, faculty members involved with running certain programs are also members of outside organizations and companies, and contribute their experience within industry to assist on-campus innovation. Major innovation centers on campus, like the vLC or Moxie Center, have official advisors from outside companies, furthering the connection local companies have with innovative stuents on campus. These connections foster communication, and provide advantages to both students and local companies-- the companies talent search on campus, and talented students benefit from the attention from potential employers. UCSD's strong STEM culture and highly recognized entrepreneurial community make it a hub of attention, from established companies and startups alike.
