"The University of California, Davis, has joined an international network of research-intensive universities committed to internationalization and multinational collaboration.

Universitas 21, also known as U21, announced today (Aug. 2) that UC Davis had become a member.

The campus is one of only three universities in the United States and six in North America among the network’s 27 members.
