The University of California, Riverside, commonly known as UCR or UC Riverside, is a public, coeducational university and one of ten campuses of the University of California. Its 1,200-acre main campus is in a suburban district of Riverside, California, with a branch campus in Palm Desert. Founded in 1907 as the University of California Citrus Experiment Station, Riverside research pioneered biological control, the use of natural predators to reduce pest populations, and the use of growth regulators responsible for extending the citrus growing season in California from 4 months to 9 months.

With the fastest student population growth in the UC system, projected at 6% annually through 2010, Riverside currently enrolls the most diverse student body of all the UC campuses.
