Department Overview

The University of California and its 10 campuses are poised to enter a new phase of engagement in Sacramento, with a brand new system-wide hub, the UC Student and Policy Center (UCSPC), bringing together UC faculty, researchers, and students with state leaders and policymakers in the heart of the California's capital city, Sacramento, California. In the coming years, the Center will be activated by a highly visible, public facing program of topflight speakers, debates, briefings, and panels designed to speak to major policy issues of our time, policy work conducted on behalf of the State of California and the legislature, and to the groundbreaking work of UC students and faculty throughout the UC system. Administered by the Office of the President and activated by researchers and students from across the UC system, the UCSPC is located within walking distance of the state capital in Sacramento and serves as a lively civic space for events, debates, gatherings, meetings and more. The Center will be a locus for drawing attention to collaborative policy research efforts within and between the campuses, and a conduit for making that research available to state policymakers. The mission of the public-facing program is to harness all that the world's most celebrated public university has to offer to policy makers in the capital and to be recognized in the media for this effort.
