The University of California Center at Sacramento (UCCS) advances the University’s mission of teaching, research and public service with an integrated program to train future state leaders, to address challenging public-policy issues confronted by the nation and state, and to carry out the University’s mandate to assist state government. Located one block from the State Capitol Building, UCCS offers events and seminars, as well as distinctive academic programs in public policy and public-affairs journalism to students from throughout the university’s 10-campus system. These programs provide students with an opportunity to study through seminars and internships in and around the state Capitol.
