Master's degrees have become the entry level for many professions
and Cal State L.A. offers more than fifty Master's degrees
in a
large range of academic disciplines, as well as a joint doctorate
degree in Special Education and over fifty graduate
certificate and credential programs. Programs are housed in
departments located in the university's six Colleges:
Arts and
Letters; Business and
Economics;
Engineering, Computer Science, and Technology;
Health and Human
Services; Natural and
Social Sciences; and the
Charter College
of Education, which also offers a full range of degree and
credential programs approved by the State of California. Each
college has an associate dean to help assure that many
decisions concerning individual students can be made quickly.
The Office of Graduate Studies and Research administers the
following programs for CSLA graduate students:
Graduate Equity
Fellowship Program; International Graduate Student Tuition Waiver
Program; and the California Pre-Doctoral Program. The Office also
administers the CSU Forgivable Loan/Doctoral Incentive Program
whose goal is to increase the diversity of persons qualified to
compete for instructional faculty positions on CSU campuses by
providing support during pursuit of their doctoral degree.

Research and Sponsored Programs
The campus receives over $28 million per year in individual and
institutional contracts, grants, and cooperative agreements from
federal, state, local and private organizations. As part of
Graduate Studies and Research, The Office of Research and
Sponsored Programs (ORSP)
assists faculty and staff in applying for extramural funding
primarily from federal agencies, private foundations and other
sources. The office provides services at all stages of the
proposal submission and pre-award process, including budget
preparation; project conceptualization and development; assistance
with writing, research, and editing; connections with other
academic institutions, government and community agencies, and
businesses and industry; and proposal technical preparation and
submission.
The Office for the Advancement of Science, Engineering and
Mathematics-Education (SEM-Ed)
provides coordinating leadership and assistance to the many campus
programs in these disciplines, especially those that involve
students directly.
