The Graduate Student Center

As Director of The Graduate Student Center (GSC) here at California State University, Bakersfield (CSUB), I would like to personally welcome you to our GSC webpages.  The GSC supports and provides numerous services and resources to prospective, current, and past graduate students at CSUB.  These resources include (but are certainly not limited to) graduate advising, biannual graduate orientation, annual graduate summit, annual grad slam (3MT) competition, free workshops, graduate lounge, computer lab, laptop checkout, poster printing, semester-by-semester GSC newsletter, graduate panel discussions, application support, Chancellor's Doctoral Incentive Program, California Pre-Doctoral Program, other graduate events, and much more.  With over 20 graduate programs (including Doctoral, Master's, second Bachelor's, post Baccalaureate, and Credential programs), 19+ credentials, 6+ professional certificates, 3+ academic certificates, 1,400+ current graduate students, and 12,000+ graduate alum, our graduate programs are continually growing (and notably, we plan to add 8 more graduate programs in the near future).   Again, I invite you to browse our GSC webpages and access the numerous resources we have to offer our graduate students.  Finally, please consider joining us in our mission to serve and support prospective, current, and past CSUB graduate students by donating to the GSC. Please know your generous donations (no matter how large or small) have a direct positive impact on our graduate students  

As always, please do not hesitate to contact the GSC should you have any questions or concerns. 

Sincerely,
