The California State University (CSU) is the largest four-year university system in the United States, with 23 campuses, 53,000 faculty and staff, and 482,000 students. The mission of the CSU is to provide high-quality, affordable education to meet the ever-changing needs of California. With its commitment to quality, opportunity, and student success, the CSU is renowned for superb teaching, innovative research, and for producing job-ready graduates. Each year, the CSU awards more than 125,000 degrees; one in every 20 Americans holding a college degree is a graduate of the CSU. Cal State Fullerton is strongly committed to achieving excellence through diversity and is a designated Hispanic Serving Institution and an Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Eligible Institution. CSUF is number one in California for conferring baccalaureate degrees to both women and Hispanics; number two in the nation for graduating underrepresented students; and with more than 80,000 applications every fall, a first-choice institution known for its national rankings in both academic rigor and lowest net cost. The University is committed to creating a community in which a diverse population can live, work, and learn in an atmosphere of tolerance, civility, and respect for the rights and sensibilities of each individual. CSUF is also the number one destination for community college transfer students among all California public universities for 18 of the past 21 years. Central to the success of CSUF is the quality and dedication of its more than 4,100 full- and part- time faculty and staff members. In the fall of 2019, CSUF employed 831 tenured and tenure-track faculty members and 1,281 lecturers across Cal State Fullerton's eight colleges, which are home to 110 instructional programs, 56 undergraduate and 54 graduate, including two doctoral programs, along with numerous credential and certificate programs. Faculty members were awarded more than $27.4 million in grants and contracts for research and scholarly activities in 2018-19. Research and creative activities are enhanced by the proximity of the campus to nationally recognized business, cultural, and educational institutions. The campus launched its new strategic plan in 2018. The ambitious goals put forth in the plan and the collective moxie to achieve them also gave rise to three powerful words that have since become the spirit by which faculty, staff, students, and alumni work, study, and play: Titans Reach Higher. That theme - and the diverse campus community that make it a reality - is the driving force for the current five-year Strategic Plan (2018-2023), which is focused on the following goals: Providing a transformative educational experience and environment for all students Strengthening opportunities for student completion and graduation Recruiting and retaining a high-quality and diverse faculty and staff Expanding and strengthening our financial and physical capacity The operating budget for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019 was $436.8 million. The University's first-ever comprehensive philanthropy campaign, "It Takes a Titan: The Campaign for Cal State Fullerton" is underway. The five-year, $200 million initiative prioritizes investing in projects that enhance academic innovation, empower students, transform campus structures, and enrich the community. Cal State Fullerton recorded more than $28 million in gifts for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019, a record for Titans. Alumni giving nearly doubled from last year and individual giving is the highest it has been in a decade. The CSUF endowment has grown by more than $27 million over the last six years to over $61 million. President Framroze "Fram" Virjee has led Cal State Fullerton since January 2018. Previously, he served as the executive vice chancellor and general counsel for the California State University Chancellor's Office and all 23 campuses of the CSU system, and was a partner at O'Melveny & Myers, one of the largest law firms in the nation.
