奇科州的教育、研究和公共服务植根于真正重要的东西——社区。我们的座右铭“今天决定明天”，反映了奇科州教职员工的高影响力教学方法，帮助学生将他们的学习应用于现实世界，包括实地工作、实习、学生研究、尖端实验室等。这种对社区学习的广泛承诺使我们在公民参与和服务方面赢得了国家的承认。该校一直被评为美国西部最好的地区公立大学之一，也是唯一一所在美国教育部大学记分牌（College Scoreboard）所有五个类别中都获得好评的CSU，该记分牌对大学的可负担性和价值进行了评分。这所大学在2015年成为联邦拉美裔服务机构，因为我们认识到超过25%的学生认同拉美裔或拉美裔，我们一半以上的学生是第一代，这意味着他们是家庭中第一个从四年制大学毕业的人。我们也是一所一流的留学学校，学生在这里学习如何在一个相互关联的世界中茁壮成长。奇科州立大学成立于1887年，是加州州立大学体系中第二古老的校园。我们培养教育工作者的传统至今仍在继续，因为我们每年为200多名学生教师颁发证书，并提供创新项目，例如为未来的科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）教师提供的项目。作为一所综合性大学，奇科州立大学提供艺术、人文、科学和技术方面的均衡教育，同时提供专业销售、护理、营养和食品科学、具体行业管理、录音艺术和音乐行业、法医人类学和多文化教育等特色课程。我们还有一个800英亩的大学农场和2330英亩的生态保护区。教职员工以与学生建立终身关系而闻名。我们是南科大一年级毕业率最高的学校之一，在《财富》500强企业中拥有杰出的学生排名记录。有影响力的校友定期回校园招聘、讲课，并向在校学生提供专家建议。大多数学生居住在校园内，校园位于迷人的奇科市中心，以其鼓舞人心的自然美景和友好的社区而闻名。除了出色的职业和教育机会外，校园内外的生活质量为个人和职业发展提供了全面的体验。学生可以通过数以百计的学生组织探索自己的兴趣，发现新的激情，培养团队精神。他们步行或骑自行车到校园，在当地企业、非营利组织和校园内的办公室做志愿者、实习生和工作。他们常年在农贸市场购物，在奇科的许多餐馆和咖啡馆吃饭，参与充满活力的艺术、文化和社交活动。塞拉俱乐部（Sierra Club）等实体因我们对可持续发展的承诺而庆祝这所大学，学生们在美丽的比德威尔公园（Bidwell Park）探索户外活动，并通过教育课程或相关的学生冒险郊游计划在北州旅行。从第一天起，奇科州立大学创建了一个学习社区，有意将课堂上获得的知识和技能与学生在职业和个人生活中将面临的现实中的积极参与和自我反思联系起来。

Chico State's education, research, and public service are rooted in what really matters--community. Our motto, "Today Decides Tomorrow," reflects the high-impact teaching methods of Chico State's faculty and staff, which help students apply their learning in real-world settings, including field work, internships, student research, cutting-edge laboratories, and more. This broad commitment to community-based learning has earned us national recognition for civic engagement and service. The campus is consistently ranked as one of the best regional public universities in the Western United States, and is the only CSU, campus to have earned a favorable rating in all five categories of the U.S. Department of Education's College Scoreboard, which rates universities on affordability and value. The University became a federal Hispanic-Serving Institution in 2015, in recognition that more than 25 percent of our students identify as Hispanic or Latino, and more than half of our students are first-generation, meaning they are the first in their families to graduate from a four-year university. We are also a top-ranked study abroad school, where students learn to thrive in an interconnected world. Founded as a teachers college in 1887, Chico State is the second-oldest campus in the California State University system. Our legacy of preparing educators continues today, as we credential over 200 student-teachers annually and offer innovative programs, such as those for future science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) teachers. As a comprehensive university, Chico State provides a balanced education in the arts, humanities, science, and technology, while offering signature programs such as professional sales, nursing, nutrition and food science, concrete industry management, recording arts and music industry, forensic anthropology, and multicultural education. We are also home to an 800-acre University Farm and more than 2,330 acres of ecological reserves. Faculty and staff have a reputation for building lifelong relationships with students. We have one of the highest freshman graduation rates in the CSU and a distinguished record of placing students with Fortune 500 companies. Influential alumni regularly return to campus to recruit, lecture, and give expert advice to current students. The majority of students live on or within a mile of campus, which is situated in the heart of charming downtown Chico and is known for its inspiring natural beauty and welcoming community. In addition to outstanding career and educational opportunities, the quality of life found on campus and beyond provides a holistic experience for personal and professional growth. Students can explore their interests, discover new passions, and cultivate a team mindset through hundreds of student organizations. They walk or bike to campus and volunteer, intern, and work at local businesses and nonprofits and in offices across campus. They shop at year-round farmers markets, eat at Chico's many restaurants and cafes, and participate in the vibrant arts, culture, and social scene. The University is celebrated by entities like the Sierra Club for our commitment to sustainability, and students explore the outdoors in beautiful Bidwell Park and travel the North State through education courses or the Associated Students Adventure Outings program. From day one, Chico State creates a learning community that deliberately links the knowledge and skills gained in the classroom to active engagement and self-reflection grounded in the realities students will face in their careers and personal lives.
