UC San Diego Colleges

Collected by: University of California San Diego

Archived since: Jul, 2023

Description:

UC San Diego is organized into a family of undergraduate colleges: Revelle, John Muir, Thurgood Marshall, Earl Warren, Eleanor Roosevelt, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth. The UC San Diego college system combines the academic advantages of a large research university with the finest features of a small liberal arts college. Each of the semiautonomous undergraduate colleges has its own campus neighborhood, residence facilities, staff, traditions, general-education requirements, and distinctive educational philosophy. Each faculty member on the general campus is assigned to a college as well as to a department. The choice of a college is not based on a student’s major, but on preferences in terms of the various educational philosophies and environments offered by the colleges.
