“CSU-ACE”

Welcome to the CSU-ACE website. CSU-ACE stands for the California State University Intelligence Community Center of Academic Excellence.

CSU-ACE began in the Fall of 2006 with a multi-year, multi-million dollar grant from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) funded through the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA).

The ODNI has funded ten university Intelligence Community Centers of Academic Excellence (IC CAE) throughout the United States since 2003 and intends on establishing a total of twenty by 2015.

CSU-ACE is a unique consortium of seven California State University campuses throughout southern California. The consortium is made up of CSU Bakersfield, Dominguez Hills, Fullerton, Long Beach, Northridge, San Bernardino and Cal Poly Pomona.
