UCSB Leases New Facility in Goleta for Research and Development

UC Santa Barbara will lease a 105,000-square-foot research and development facility in Goleta for UCSB researchers, students, industry members, and startup companies.

Named OASIS, the facility at 71 S. Los Carneros Drive is designed for collaboration between researchers and tech companies to develop new technologies and equipment. 

UCSB’s Dean of Engineering Umesh Mishra said at Tuesday’s Goleta City Council meeting that the new facility will allow researchers to expand on the ideas and technologies they discover on campus.

“OASIS is a metaphor that represents the transition across a desert between the discovery of innovation and the delivery of innovation for society,” Mishra said.
