CORE Naming Opportunities

The forthcoming CORE building, which includes the Hub for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, will be a destination for “high impact” learning that connects our students’ aptitudes and abilities with the needs of employers and California. The space will also include traditional library services, including the Student Center for Academic Achievement (SCAA) and learning support. 

When students come to Cal State East Bay, they have already been challenged and proven to be resilient, driven and smart. As graduates, they will be successful and competitive in becoming the next generation’s workforce.

Cal State East Bay is grateful to the State of California for providing the majority of funding for CORE. The university has additional naming opportunities for private support to enhance the facility for our students. For more information how to honor or recognize someone through a naming opportunity, please contact Fern Tyler at (510) 885-2433 or fern.tyler@csueastbay.edu
