Californians can earn college degrees or certificates or get job-related training at a variety of institutions both public and private, throughout the state. The variety of institutions, programs, degrees and other educational choices is wide. This Guide will help individuals identify options that suit their needs. This guide is divided into three parts designed for locating information about higher education in a number of ways. Part I lists the names of the campuses individuals are considering attending. All of California's degree-granting colleges and universities are described and listed in alphabetical order under the following six categories: (1) California Community Colleges; (2) The California State University; (3) University of California; (4) Other Public Institutions; (5) Independent Colleges and Universities; and (6) Private State-Approved and Exempt Institutions. Part II contains specific programs--such as Journalism or Computer Engineering. Institutions that offer each program are listed under that heading. Part III is an index. Individuals can use this section to locate schools, programs, towns with campuses, military bases with off-campus centers, and virtually any other topic covered in this Guide.
