Archive of Previous General Catalogs

Archived editions of the UC Santa Cruz General Catalog are available in PDF formats. Each PDF includes bookmarks for easy navigation—just click the Bookmarks icon to expand the menu. Program statements are under the Programs and Courses section, and department course and faculty listings are found by clicking the plus sign (+) next to each program’s bookmark. If you’re viewing a PDF in your browser, use the bookmarks to navigate instead of the back button.

From 2004–2010, catalogs were printed every two years. In the off years, updates were provided online and are compiled here in PDF form. From 2012–13 to 2019–20, catalogs were available in both HTML and PDF.
