History

The State Legislature established what was then known as Stanislaus State College in 1957. The first classes opened in September of 1960 on the Stanislaus County Fairgrounds. In 1965, the college moved to its permanent campus. It was awarded university status and renamed California State University, Stanislaus in 1985.

Residents of San Joaquin County gained access to public higher education when the University opened the Stockton Center on the campus of San Joaquin Delta College in 1974. In the fall of 1998, the Center, renamed CSU Stanislaus-Stockton Center, moved to its permanent site on Magnolia Avenue at University Park in downtown Stockton.

Academic Programs

The University offers undergraduate degrees in 41 majors; master’s degrees in 24 programs; an Executive MBA; a doctorate in education; credentials in teacher preparation and in professional areas; and more than 2,000 courses including pre-professional programs in law, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, physical therapy, veterinary medicine, optometry, laboratory technology, and medical laboratory technology. Students are encouraged to take courses to give them a broad understanding of the liberal arts and sciences in their first two years so they can make an informed choice of specialization. See “Programs” link at the left for further information.

Faculty

The highly accessible faculty is renowned for teaching, research, and service. Eighty-four percent of full-time faculty are tenured or on tenure-track. Eight-six percent of tenured or tenure-track full-time faculty hold a doctorate or other terminal degree in their fields.

Outstanding Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity Professor:  Dr. Samuel Regalado

Samuel Regalado, Professor of History, has been selected as the Outstanding Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity Professor.  Dr. Regalado has distinguished himself as a leading scholar locally, nationally and internationally in the area of U.S. sports history through his extensive research and publications focusing on “the interrelations among baseball, race, ethnicity, and law in 20th-century American society.”  In particular he has focused his work on Mexican American and Japanese American experiences in the U.S. national pastime of baseball.  Among his extensive publications is “Viva Baseball” which received several awards and is noted as a milestone in the area of Latin American baseball players.  Dr. Regalado is lauded and respected by his colleagues and peers, and he has elevated the image of the University by the spotlight he has created through his valuable contributions and achievements in research, scholarship and creative activity.

Co-op students thus have opportunities to gain practical experience which complements their academic study and permits them to explore actual career options before graduation. In these assignments co-op students earn competitive income and often are subsequently hired full-time by their employers. Placement of students in Cooperative Education appointments is the responsibility of the appropriate academic department through which the student registers for Cooperative Education credits.

This means students spend various amounts of time in community organizations working with real people with real needs. The Office of Service Learning can recommend course options with a service component, volunteer sites as well as faculty and student resources available to encourage active learning both in the classroom and the community.
