Semel HCI Steering Committee
The Semel HCI Steering Committee provides intellectual and strategic guidance for the direction of Semel HCI through monthly meetings, at which members share pod achievements, present on emerging innovation around living well, and discuss strategic decisions and commitments. Members of the Steering Committee represent diverse campus constituencies, including senior administrators such as vice chancellors, deans, faculty, student leaders, pod leaders, staff leadership and graduate student researchers (GSRs). Additional key stakeholders have been invited to join the Steering Committee with the aim to increase diversity and campus representation. The Steering Committee members are committed to creating a culture of physical, social and emotional health and well-being for UCLA students, faculty and staff.
“HCI has enriched my perspective on the university and given me a chance to contribute to being a healthy campus that I am proud of!”
