Small Classes, Friendly Atmosphere
“ I love t hat CS UMB’ s class size is so small. It allows for more personable relat ionships and int eract ion wit h t he inst ruct ors and professors.“

everyone, and if they don’t, they probably will soon.”
csumb.edu/business

are my friends because of who I am, not what decade I was born in.”
“Every staff member, from the chefs in the Dining Commons
to your math teacher, genuinely want you to do well in school.”
“I really like the CSUMB environment. Not too crowded… really professional.”
Cool Stuff in the Area
“ I love how outdoors-ey the campus
- is. I love to go to the beach, go
biking, hiking, and exploring.”
“Anywhere I drive, I can see the ocean. Its breathtaking!”
“I love the local area - Monterey, Marina, Seaside, Carmel. It’s fun to walk on the wharf, testing all the samples of clam chowder.”
Workforce Readiness
