Cal Poly Humboldt

Cal Poly Humboldt emphasizes hands-on undergraduate research and intensive faculty mentoring of students. Founded in 1913, Humboldt is a coeducational residential campus located 90 minutes south of the Oregon border in the rural redwoods on Northern California's Pacific Coast. Humboldt has long been a place where students come to discover their futures, chart their paths, and become the innovators of tomorrow. Now, as Cal Poly Humboldt, that responsibility has more weight than ever — and we’re excited to rise to the challenge. The campus offers 64 baccalaureate degree majors, 15 graduate programs, as well as credential programs. Field research often supplements classroom instruction, and academic pursuits are melded with the unique terrain and climates of the Pacific Northwest.
