California State University Dominguez Hills

Overview

California State University-Dominguez Hills is a public institution located in the small city of Carson, in the South Bay region of Los Angeles County. Established in 1960, the university sits within a close proximity to downtown Los Angeles, granting students access to a metropolitan backdrop for both educational and recreational endeavors. The campus, noted for its modern architecture, provides a range of undergraduate and graduate programs, with notable emphasis on business, education, and nursing majors.
