Katherine

We are best known as an agricultural school and on campus we have cows and sheep to prove it! However, Davis has majors as diverse as the student population that goes here. And that's saying something! There's a beautiful balance of trees and lawn on our campus and we are fit student body seeing as we bike everywhere!

Academically, I'm not sure what our strongest department it, but I think Davis is best known for being sustainable. Basically everyone rides their bikes around campus and Davis is always coming out with ways to be more sustainable. Davis is also very agricultural, but honestly I haven't seen a single cow since coming to Davis; the agricultural parts of Davis are on the edge of campus so you really have to seek them out.
