UC Davis Graduate School of Management Fall Open House

Explore Our Graduate Business Degrees

  • October 24, 2026 10:00am - 2:00pm

 

Spend the day on campus and experience UC Davis GSM the way our students do: small classes, direct access to faculty, and a community that pushes you forward instead of against each other.

What's in store for you:

  • Sit in the classroom. A live faculty mini class gives you a genuine taste of how we teach.
  • Dive deep into your program. Dedicated sessions for MBA, MPAc, MM, and MSBA walk you through curriculum, structure, and what it takes to get in.
  • Meet the people. Talk with alumni and current students about what their time at GSM was actually like: the classes, the relationships, the community they built.
  • Ask anything, one-on-one. Admissions counselors are on hand all day for questions about your path here.
  • Still deciding? Explore freely. Move between rooms and sample more than one program. That's exactly what today is for.

What Makes UC Davis Graduate School of Management Different
Small, tight-knit cohorts mean you're not a number; faculty know your name, and classmates become genuine collaborators, not competitors. Davis itself sets the tone: a walkable, bike-friendly college town where people actually know their neighbors, far enough from the noise to focus, and close enough to Sacramento and the Bay Area to stay connected to where business happens. It's a rare combination of a big opportunity and a small-community feel.

Come with your questions. Leave with a real sense of what the GSM community and the graduate programs could do for you.

Spots are limited. Register today by October 17th.
