Division of Academic Affairs
“California State University, Dominguez Hills is a particularly exciting place to be at this time, and we are pleased that you have decided to take advantage of the many academic programs and resources we offer. Signs of institutional growth are all around you here; we hope they are reflected in your intellectual and personal growth as you explore the “world of opportunity” before you. The entire University “family”—faculty, staff, administrators and your fellow students—will share with you in this part of your academic journey. Take advantage of all and you will be well on the way to a challenging and rewarding college experience and a promising future.”
Sam Wiley,
Interim Provost/ Vice President for Academic Affairs
The academic programs of the University are organized in the College of Liberal Arts, the College of Business Administration and Public Policy, the College of Health and Human Services, the College of Natural and Behavioral Sciences and the College of Education. Within these administrative units, you will find a broad variety of both undergraduate and graduate programs designed to stimulate your intellectual curiosity and to prepare you for both a career and lifelong learning. The College of Extended and International Education within Academic Affairs offers additional opportunities through distance learning, managing on-line degree programs in Nursing and Business and Public Administration as well as extensive additional credit and non-credit offerings, certificate and training programs. Each of these units is described in more detail immediately following this section.
The administrators in Central Academic Affairs include the Dean of Graduate Studies and Research, the Dean of Undergraduate Studies, the Vice Provost, and the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. Each of these individuals can be relied on for assistance in facilitating student learning and achievement.
Another vital academic resource for students is the University Library which houses a variety of books, periodicals, and on-line data bases to support students in their academic endeavors. For more information, see the “Student Services” section of this catalog that describes the Library’s function and mission within the University.
The University recognizes that the college experience is not simply a matter of books and study. Thus, we offer a variety of academic and cultural programs, clubs and honor societies, and student activities designed to provide co-curricular support for student success. Significant opportunities for students to be involved with their professors in meaningful research efforts are widely available. In conjunction with our role as a “Communiversity” in active partnership with the communities in our region, we offer a variety of service learning roles enabling students to put theory into practice. The unique diversity of this campus, recognized by national magazines and organizations, insures that all CSUDH students will have the opportunity of learning and socializing with others of diverse ages, ethnicities, and races, thus preparing them to work effectively in a modern and global world.
College of Arts and Humanities
Established in the Fall of 2004, as the result of a campus reorganization, the College of Arts and Humanities encompasses the disciplines of Africana Studies, Art, Asian Pacific Studies, Communication, Dance, Digital Media Art, English, Foreign Languages, History, Philosophy, Humanities, Interdisciplinary Studies, Music, Negotiation, Conflict Resolution, and Peace-Building, Theater Arts, and Women Studies. With this exciting array of programs, students are presented with many choices, choices that will shape their professional and personal lives forever.
Three of the four basic skills required of all students are taught in the College of Arts and Humanities: English composition, critical thinking, and oral communication. While other general education courses serve to broaden students’ understanding of the world in which they live, courses in the majors serve to deepen their knowledge of a particular subject matter. I encourage you to review the requirements and course lists for the General Education program and the majors that you are considering.
The liberal arts are too frequently viewed as having a limiting effect in the job market. However, from a real practical standpoint, the liberal arts produce individuals who have read broadly, can communicate effectively, are analytical, and are creative, adaptable problem-solvers. Our programs provide students with many opportunities for hands-on experiences, whether it is producing works of art, performing on a stage, conducting field research in Baja, recording oral histories in Compton, interning at a public relations firm, developing a lesson plan for a charter school, or traveling abroad to learn a second language. According to the Los Angeles Times (April 4, 2004), the “ability to rapidly integrate information, shape it into a usable form, and apply it to the position is an advantage, even over those who took a more trade-oriented approach to their education.”
The faculty in the College of Arts and Humanities are dedicated teacher-scholars who are prepared to inform, inspire, guide, and empower students. They are experts in their fields, most of whom have Ph.D.’s or other terminal degrees, and have strong publication records or are regionally, nationally, or internationally recognized for their creative products. CAH’s faculty is talented, caring, and diverse.
The College of Arts and Humanities truly does provide students with a world of opportunities

Education is the key to the world of opportunity in the 21st century. Access to data has exploded due to the digital and internet revolutions. However, the abundance of data in no way assures good decision making. Data must be converted to useful information through knowledgeable analysis. Such analysis can only occur through educated and informed individuals and systems. The College of Business Administration and Public Policy provides students with the skills to turn data into useful information and compete in the global markets of the 21st century.
Our first priority is to graduate Baccalaureate students who can assume the full responsibility of an entry -level professional position in the world of opportunity. Our second priority is to graduate Masters students who can assume managerial positions in private and public sector organizations. Our third priority is to provide our graduates with the lifelong learning skills and motivation to grow and evolve as the world of opportunity changes. Graduates of the College of Business Administration and Public Policy find career positions in both large and small private and public sector firms, start their own businesses, work in local, state and federal governments and agencies and in non-profit organizations and attend graduate and law school.
At the heart of our
program in preparing students for the future is the faculty in the College of
Business Administration and Public Policy. I proudly state that our faculty
comprise a cadre of dedicated professors who are committed to teaching and
remaining current with business, public administration, economics, political
science, and labor practice, research and theory. Faculty have been active in
as practitioners in their respective fields throughout their careers. This expertise
greatly enriches the quality of classroom education as well as other related
experiences - on-site tours, internships, guest speakers and enhanced job
placement opportunities upon graduation.
Our faculty have designed a curriculum that has as its primary objective the transfer of “best practices” in business, government and not-for-profit organizations. As a citizen and future manager or public administrator, students must develop the cultural sensitivities, technological and communication skills, negotiating techniques and team-building expertise to function in the diverse global economy that presents so many opportunities The cultural, ethnic, gender, social and economic diversity within the faculty and student population of the CSUDH College of Business Administration and Public Policy provides students with a unique setting to develop these attributes so critical to career success.
The College believes that leaders do not just react to opportunity but, in fact, take actions that shape the opportunity. On the following pages, we describe the educational programs offered in the College of Business Administration and Public Policy, which are designed to shape the leaders that will create the world of opportunity in the 21st century.
We welcome inquiries and questions, and we invite you to visit the campus and the College of Business Administration and Public Policy. We want to become your business, economics, public administration, political science, or labor and applied studies program of choice and prepare you for the ever-evolving and exciting world of opportunity that awaits you.

The core mission of the College of Natural and Behavioral Sciences is to prepare individuals for careers in scientific research, math/science education, or applied science fields such as medicine, dentistry, engineering, computer technology, and clinical psychology. Disciplines represented in the College include Anthropology, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth Sciences, Mathematics, Sociology, Physics, Psychology, and Quality Assurance. The College of Natural and Behavioral Sciences contributes to the general education program in three ways, first, through its offering of mathematics courses designed for students to develop basic quantitative skills, secondly, through the offering of non-major courses that introduce students to general scientific concepts and methods, and, thirdly, through the offering of upper-division integrative studies courses in Science, Math, and Technology (SMT).
In an increasingly technological society, graduates with degrees in natural or computational sciences are in high demand. Public schools, in particular, are aggressively recruiting highly qualified teachers in math and science to prepare the next generation of scientists and science educators. Virtually every organization needs individuals who can coordinate their electronic communication networks, maintain their hardware and software, and manage large databases. State and federal agencies allocate billions of dollars each year for biomedically-related research of various kinds, including psychological research, ultimately in pursuit of cures for the numerous illnesses and diseases that plague humankind today and to save our environment. Still other federal agencies award large grants for military and outer-space research. Careers in the natural and behavioral sciences can be very lucrative and personally rewarding.
The College prides itself on being the home of a number of outstanding teaching award recipients. As teacher-scholars, they are devoted to teaching in both the lecture format as well as the hands-on, laboratory format, where students learn, firsthand, what it means to “do science.” To their credit, faculty in the college have received federal training grants to provide support for minority graduate students in the sciences. The MBRS (RISE and SCORE) program is exemplary of this effort. Through a partnership with the American Psychological Association and the National Institute of General Medical Science, the Psychology Department has developed a program that introduces students to biomedically-related fields of psychology and pipelines them into graduate programs. In addition, through a collaboration with Californian State University-Fullerton, the Physics faculty at CSUDH have developed an Engineering Option in the Physic undergraduate program that prepares students for immediate entry into the Electrical Engineering graduate program at Fullerton.
In summary, the College of Natural and Behavioral Sciences offers a world of opportunities for its students.
