University of California, Merced

Overview

The University of California, Merced (UC Merced) is a public research university established in 2005 and located in the San Joaquin Valley of California. Spanning approximately 1,026 acres near Lake Yosemite, it serves as the newest campus in the University of California system, committed to research, education, and public service for a region with historically low educational attainment.

The university offers over 60 undergraduate degrees and 18 graduate and professional degrees across three schools. Classified as an "R1: Doctoral Universities – Very High research activity" institution, UC Merced performs significant research in areas such as stem cells, artificial intelligence, and renewable energy. It is developing a medical school in collaboration with UCSF to address local healthcare shortages. With a highly diverse student body, the university leads the UC system in supporting underrepresented groups and first-generation college students and plays an essential role in the regional economy.
