UCLA is a member of the The Dickens Project.
Each year two UCLA graduate students are selected to participate in the weeklong summer conference in Santa Cruz, called the Dickens Universe.
UC undergraduates may also sign up for the week long course in Santa Cruz for credit.
Roughly every four years, UCLA hosts the Dickens Project Graduate Conference: in 2006, in 2010, in 2014, and 2019. In 2025 we will be hosting the graduate conference again .
Contact Professor Grossman to be added to the waiting list;
