Working for California:The Impact of the
California State University
Economic Impact Study 2010
Overview of the CSU’s Impact Assessment
• Updating the assessment conducted in 2004.
• Measures fiscal and qualitative impacts of the CSU on regions and state.
• Identifies CSU’s contributions to educational access, workforce preparation, sustainability, and research/innovation.
2
The Magnitude of the CSU's Economic Impact
CSU is an Economic Engine:
• University expenditures almost $8 billion.
• CSU-related spending generates more than $17 billion annually in
economic activity.
• CSU’s direct spending generates $995 million in annual taxes for state and local governments, giving back more than the state’s annual investment in the CSU.
3
The State’s Return on Investment
• CSU-related expenditures create a return on investment of $5.43 for every $1 the state invests.
• Higher alumni earnings and CSU expenditures together provide a return of over $23 for every $1 the state invests.
4
CSU Supports Employment Across California
• Job Creation – CSU-related expenditures support over 150,000 jobs annually in
California.
– With higher alumni earnings, CSU supports roughly 485,000 jobs statewide annually.
• Reduced Unemployment – A four-year college degree reduces the likelihood that a Californian
is unemployed. California’s unemployment rate for workers with only a high-school degree is almost 14 percent compared to just over 6 percent for four-year degree holders.

In 2006-07, the CSU Awarded:
• 71,000 bachelor’s degrees, half of all the bachelor’s degrees statewide.
• 18,000 master’s degrees, one-third of all the master’s degrees statewide.
