Athletics

SAC 3
(310) 243-3893

The Cal State Dominguez Hills athletics department has built a national reputation for athletic and academic achievement, further solidified by the 2011 NCAA Track & Field 4x400 National Championship and the 2008 NCAA Men's Soccer National Championship, the men's soccer program's second NCAA Title in an eight-year stretch, which included both NSCAA National Coach and Player of the Year honors.

The Toros compete nationally at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II level, and are a member of the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA), recognized nationally as the NCAA Division II "Conference of Champions," with 154 NCAA National Titles to date. Additionally, CSUDH is the only NCAA Division II program to capture both men's and women's soccer titles after the Toros women's soccer team garnered the first-ever NCAA National Championship for CSUDH in 1991.

Away from the pitch, a CCAA Conference high three Toro baseball players were drafted in both the 2015 and 2014 Major League Baseball amateur drafts, with one selected this past season.

Cal State Dominguez Hills sponsors 10 intercollegiate athletic teams that serve approximately 200 student-athletes in men's and women's basketball, men's and women's soccer, men's golf, baseball, women's volleyball, softball, and indoor/outdoor track and field. A source of even greater pride than the Toros' considerable athletic achievements has been the success of Toro student-athletes in the classroom. Toro student-athletes have boasted three Rhodes Scholar candidates and two Rhodes Scholar finalists since 1987 while winning two prestigious Woody Hayes Scholar Athlete Awards, making CSU Dominguez Hills one of just two schools in the nation with multiple award winners.

In 2008-2009 alone, the Toros boasted the CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American of the Year, as well as the CCAA Scholar-Athlete of the Year, the first and third such honors won by the school, respectively.

Athletic facilities such as the Torodome (gymnasium), fitness center, swimming pool, tennis courts, track and all-purpose field are available for use by enrolled students, faculty and staff. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to use the facilities when there is no conflict with classes or other scheduled events and approved supervision is provided.

Information concerning athletic opportunities available to male and female students and the financial resources and personnel that CSU Dominguez Hills dedicates to its men’s and women’s teams may be obtained from the Director of Athletics at (310) 243-3893 while letters of inquiry can be emailed to athletics@csudh.edu or mailed to 1000 E.

Its research program is developed in cooperation with community groups and agencies.

The research program of UCRC concentrates on projects with direct application to the improvement of a range of urban community conditions and needs in our region, thereby offering faculty and students from diverse disciplines the opportunity to contribute to collaborative research endeavors applied to satisfying those needs. Faculty and students from any discipline are encouraged to develop research projects, evaluations, and assessments in collaboration with community groups and organizations, and government agencies, such as health, safety, planning and community and economic development agencies and groups, and a variety of social service agencies in the region, consistent with the mission of the Center to produce useful knowledge in support of a better quality of life in urban communities.

Honors Program

Academic Affairs
(310) 243-2432

Program Description, Features and Benefits

The University Honors Program offers a community of Honors students and faculty who are committed to academic excellence, creativity, critical thinking, and independent research.

The program provides an academically enriched and socially supportive environment that inspires students in all disciplines to become creative and critical thinkers as well as leaders in their fields.  Honors students receive the extra stimulation of a special program while participating in the life of the campus at large. The program fosters the intellectual curiosity of all students and provides rigorous preparation for those interested in pursuing advanced degrees in graduate or professional school.

All components of the program are designed to provide an atmosphere in which committed students may strive for excellence and further the process of self-discovery, which is the significant goal of a university education: "Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself." (John Dewey)

Honors Program students have priority registration privileges, priority consideration for on-campus student housing, and individual academic mentoring by the program coordinator.  First year and transfer students who are eligible for the Honors Program qualify for the President's Honors Scholarship.

Honors Contracts, Seminars and Senior Thesis

Honors Contracts enable a student to have the designation "Honors" appended to a given upper division course by completing more sophisticated work than the instructor is asking of the regularly enrolled students. With this option, the student, with the consent and guidance of the instructor, can undertake Honors-level study, and receive Honors credit in a non-Honors course. The Honors work undertaken is in addition to, rather than instead of, the regular course assignments.

The student and faculty member agree at the beginning of the course on the nature of the work to be done for Honors credit (examples might include pretesting lab experiments, making one or more special presentations to the class, or creating an annotated bibliography of materials). This agreement, its rationale, and its means of evaluation, are specified on a proposal form submitted to the Honors Program coordinator by the fifth week of the semester.

Special Seminar courses offer Honor students an opportunity to exploring inter-disciplinary topics or issues with faculty members.

Honors Scholars are upper division Honors Program students who participate in independent research under the direction of faculty members in their fields. Honors Scholars receive academic credit for their work with these faculty members on research or teaching-related activities for a semester.

The Senior Honors Thesis enables students to pursue an original project in an area of their interest (usually within the major) culminating in a substantial written report or other appropriate result. Students work under the guidance of a faculty member in the area of interest. Successful completion of the thesis will be noted on the student transcript. Students should inquire at the Honors Program for guidelines and direction.

Eligibility

The program is open to undergraduate students from throughout the University. Eligibility is determined by grade point average, SAT scores, community service experience, and personal interviews.  For application information contact Academic Affairs WH 440.
