* Transfer Social

At the end of Spring Semester our annual Transfer Social takes place! This event takes place typically in May for all students to celebrate students who are transferring to universities. The Social takes place on Raider Walk & the Quad and is a great opportunity to meet with university representatives and network with other students who are transferring as well.  This year the event is scheduled for May 2, 2019 at the QUAD!

The Career Transfer Center hosts a campus Transfer Day during the Fall Semester out on Raider Walk.  This event provides students the opportunity to meet University & College Representatives, inquire about educational opportunities available at their respective campuses, and learn about college programs and services available at participating college campuses.  Check back for announcements about this event.

* Major Awareness

There are numerous majors and programs to choose from.  Throughout the Fall Semester Moorpark College has workshops and various speakers to guide you through the process of choosing a major. Disciplines and special programs available on campus are highlighted at booths for you to explore.  Keep your eyes open for Major Awareness!

University of California, Berkeley

The geography department at UC Berkeley would like to invite students to join them on campus this summer for summer sessions 2019!  We are offering a wide array of courses this summer, many that are lower division and would be a great introduction for students to human geography or earth systems science. Most of these courses are great for students of any background or interest, and there are few that require pre-requisites. 

Students can find the full listing of our summer offerings through the Berkeley Course Guide. They can also learn more about our department and faculty through the Berkeley Geography website.

If you have any questions about summer courses at Berkeley, you can find information to many common questions through these links:

I also wanted to mention the program for community college students and UC Berkeley called Pathways that will allow eligible US students to transfer financial aid to take Berkeley Summer Sessions courses. Please refer your students to their website for more information: Pathways to Four-Year Universities.
