President’s Message


Fram Virjee, president

Dear Titan Students:

On behalf of the faculty and staff of California State University, Fullerton, I am proud to share with you our University Catalog, a resource with limitless opportunities to explore and engage in both high quality curriculum options and transformative avenues for professional success.

I encourage you to familiarize yourself with the university as if you are creating your own life-changing adventure — because you are! If you dive into all your options and get involved with all your heart, the adventure will be all the more transformative, the journey all the more impactful, and perhaps most importantly, the learning all the more fun!

Our eight Colleges offer 110 exceptional degree programs — 55 undergraduate and 55 graduate, including doctorates in both education and nursing practice — with full accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges Senior College University Commission. These programs are further distinguished by faculty and staff who are dedicated to providing you with immersive experiences that will shape your dreams and empower you to achieve them.

And finally, when you see me around campus in the coming weeks, please stop and say hello. After all, you are the reason I am here, and you are much more to me than a student, friend, and colleague. You are all of those things and more, to be sure, but you are also now a Titan.

The meaning behind that lifelong moniker will expand exponentially as you begin to know what it takes to achieve excellence in our communities, diversity in our workforce and social justice in our nation: It takes tenacity and grit; it takes a catalyst for change; it takes academic rigor and excellence; it takes service and servant leaders.

In other words, it takes a Titan – a Titan just like you.

Sincerely,

Fram Virjee
President
