Bridging the gap between student research and open source projects, the Center for Research in Open Source Software (CROSS) provides funding to work on innovative projects after graduation. CROSS facilitates a smart way to finance open source software, and is conscious of the abilities students have to create innovative software and encourages this innovation after graduation. UCSC created CROSS as a center that assists students with their research prototypes to collaborate with open source communities and companies.
