About University of California
More than being the home of Silicon Valley and Hollywood stars, California continues its tradition of doing things on a grand scale with the University of California system of 10 universities. With a stellar global reputation, the University of California-Berkley delivers more than gold.
As the first of the UC schools, UC Berkeley started in 1868. Today, all ten campuses participate in UC Online’s Cross-Campus Enrollment System. Students can easily search and enroll in online courses from other UC campuses.
As a 4-year public university, UC Berkeley aims to serve society through such goals as:
- Transmitting advanced knowledge
- Discovering new knowledge
- Functioning as a repository of knowledge
Dating back to January 2013, UC Online offered high-quality online courses to UC students. Today, students may take online undergraduate courses and online graduate programs.
