WSCUC ACCREDITATION REAFFIRMATION

As part of maintaining university accreditation, Cal State East Bay (and all California State Universities) periodically undergo a reaffirmation of accreditation from the WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC).

FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY

As mentioned in the fall convocation presentation, Cal State East Bay is currently facing a significant structural deficit, where expenses exceed incoming revenue. To address this, the university is committed to working collectively and urgently to find solutions that close this financial gap.

COLLEGE OF HEALTH

The College of Health will officially commence in fall 2025, combining five existing departments that emphasize health and related disciplines: Kinesiology, Nursing, Public Health, Social Work and Speech, Language & Hearing Sciences. 

LEADERSHIP SEARCHES

Leadership positions at Cal State East Bay serve more than just their direct area of management. The university welcomes and supports a diverse student body with academically rich, culturally relevant learning experiences which prepare students to apply their education to meaningful lifework, and to be socially responsible contributors to society. We hope that like-minded professionals who can make a difference will consider applying for open leadership positions.
