The Career Center and Human Resources have joined forces in the development of the new Student On-Campus Employment Program (SOCEP)! The Student On-Campus Employment Program (SOCEP) is a student employment program with an objective to increase on-campus student employment for those students not necessarily eligible for work-study. The goals of the program are to:

  • provide students the opportunity to gain valuable UC work experience while earning necessary income, in an effort to mitigate increased higher education costs.

  • provide departments with the opportunity to utilize the skills and abilities of UCR students, strengthen students’ employment potential upon graduation, and reduce temporary staffing costs.

  • Student Guidelines & Resources
