Cal State Long Beach is a big part of what makes its hometown \u2013 and California \u2013 work. The Beach generates an estimated $2.4 billion worth of economic activity while supporting some 16,800 jobs.<\/p>\n
The enhanced earnings of CSULB alumni attributable to their Beach degree every year support 51,100 jobs and $10.6 billion in annual economic activity.<\/p>\n
These are among the findings from \u201cMoving California Forward: The Economic Impact of the CSU<\/a>,\u201d a new report showing how the 22-campus California State University<\/a> propels students, alumni and entire communities toward prosperity. Consulting firm ICF completed the report in partnership with the CSU Chancellor\u2019s Office and campuses.<\/p>\n In short, The Beach is a blue-chip investment for Californians. For every dollar that Sacramento invested in The Beach, the state benefited from about $8 in heightened economic activity. That figure jumps to more than $44 if alumni earnings are counted.<\/p>\n The Beach is well-known for helping students and alumni to realize their dreams.
