Programs in Medical Education.
Summary
Existing provisions of the California Constitution establish the University of California as a public trust under the administration of the Regents of the University of California. The University of California system includes 10 campuses, which are located in Berkeley, Davis, Irvine, Los Angeles, Merced, Riverside, San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, and Santa Cruz. This bill would appropriate $9,350,000 from the General Fund to the Regents of the University of California for allocation to the University of California to support Programs in Medical Education (PRIME) and would request the university to submit, on or before January 1, 2020, a report to the Legislature that assesses the feasibility of future full-time student enrollment growth in PRIME.
