Stud We are a partner in each student’s journey.

The Center for Career & Professional Advancement serves a different role than other campus resources. Rather than focus solely on students’ time as undergraduates, we are here to prepare students for life after college. Our philosophy centers around helping students develop the skills and mindset that will make their transition out of college successful, regardless of what their next step entails.

UC Merced Students — your voice matters more than you think!

Want to help shape the policies that impact your education? The UC Advocacy Network (UCAN) is looking for student ambassadors for 2026–27, and YOU could be one of them. As an ambassador, you’ll share your story, connect with UC leaders, and advocate for students at the state and federal level, with no experience needed.

Applications close October 30th. Step into advocacy and represent your campus!
