CSUCI enrollment drop biggest of California State Universities

View Gallery: CSU Channel Islands hosts tours as it tries to beef up enrollment In the 17 years after the CSU Channel Islands campus opened near Camarillo, enrollment headed in one direction: up. By the fall of 2018, the state's second-youngest public university had grown to more than 7,000 students, almost 6,500 more than when it opened in 2002 and well on the way to its target of 15,000. But momentum was shifting. Enrollment plateaued in 2019. In 2020, it began to plummet, and by the start of the 2022-2023 school year, the university was 1,500 students smaller than it had been three years earlier. That's a decline of 20.4% from fall 2019 to fall 2022, the biggest enrollment decline among the 23 California State University campuses, according to Its enrollment struggles mean the university is likely to lose nearly $8 million in state funding over the next few years, CSUCI President Richard Yao said. Enrollment in the CSU system as a whole has dropped, too, but by a much smaller margin, down about 5% from 2019 to 2022, in line with a nationwide trend in higher education. Unlike the other CSU campuses and most universities nationwide, CSUCI is early in its life cycle and is expected to grow every year. Relief does not appear to be on the horizon.

Political Science Program

Politics as a field of study Political Science is the study of government, public policies and political behavior. The major in Political Science provides students with a broad program of study designed to promote effective civic participation as a community member, citizen, activist, advocate, analyst, scholar, public servant, or elected official. The curriculum requires students to complete course work in all four areas of the CSUCI mission: interdisciplinary, experiential and service learning, international and multicultural studies. The major develops skills in critical analysis and oral and written communication. Work in the program of Political Science promotes an understanding of contemporary political systems and institutions centered on diversity, equity, and inclusion; emphasizes competency in the basic tools of political science; and focuses on the relationship between Political Science and the other disciplines. Since politics and economics are so closely tied together, the program recommends that each student complete a basic course in economics (either ECON 300 or ECON 110 and 111) as part of the course of study. In addition, the program encourages students to become competent in a second language and recommends international study for political science students interested in international affairs. La política como campo de estudio La ciencia política es el estudio del gobierno, las políticas públicas y el comportamiento político. La especialización en Cienci...
