California State University, Fullerton (also known as CSUF or Cal State Fullerton) is a public research university located in Fullerton, California. With a total enrollment of about 40,200 it has the largest student body out of the 23-campus California State University ("CSU") system, and its approximately 5,800 graduate student body is also the largest in the CSU and one of the largest in all of California.

The Orange County university offers over 240 degrees including 120 different bachelor's degrees, 118 types of master's degrees, three doctoral degrees including a Doctor of Nursing and two Doctor of Education, and 19 teaching credentials.
CSUF is designated both as a Hispanic-serving institution and an Asian American Native American Pacific Islander serving institution (AANAPISIs). The university is nationally accredited in art, athletic training, business, chemistry, communications, communicative disorders, computer science, dance, engineering, music, nursing, public administration, public health, social work, teacher education and theater. Spending related to CSUF generates an impact of around $1 billion to the California and local economy, and sustains nearly 9,000 jobs statewide.
CSUF athletic teams compete in Division I of the NCAA and are collectively known as the CSUF Titans. They are members of the Big West Conference.
In 1957, CSUF became the twelfth state college in California to be authorized by the state legislature as a degree-granting institution. The following year, a site was designated for the campus to be established in northeast Fullerton. The property was purchased in 1959. This is the same year that Dr. William B. Langsdorf was appointed as founding president of the school.
