A Great Place to Work

As a new employee, ask yourself, "At my last job, could I stroll through an art museum, listen to a concert, sit under redwood trees, workout at a gym, or ride a horse, without leaving the work site?" A short walk across campus can open your eyes to the rich quality of life on our campus.

Founded as the "University Farm" amid the fertile fields of the state's Central Valley, UC Davis has emerged an acknowledged international leader in agricultural, biological, biotechnological and environmental sciences. UC Davis is gaining similar recognition for excellence in the arts, humanities, social sciences, engineering, health sciences, law and management.

A significant contributor to the quality of the UC Davis work experience is the surrounding City of Davis. Ecologically aware and socially innovative, Davis has a small-town friendliness and spirit of volunteerism that distinguishes it from cities of similar size. The quality of life is reflected in many well-known symbols: energy conservation, greenbelts, bike paths, British double-decker buses, and of course, bicycles. You'll find an abundance of bookshops, coffeehouses and restaurants in the bustling downtown area adjacent to campus.
