INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL LAW LL.M. PROGRAM

“Here you have the chance to study in summer. International Commercial Law is great for me, because [I work] on cases between government and multi-national companies.”

Mohamed, ICL alumnus, Egypt

A part-time, summer program, completed in two to five summers

The International Commercial Law LL.M. program offers a unique opportunity to study U.S. legal systems in the company of practicing attorneys from around the world. Global commerce spans national borders, yet borders indicate different legal systems, tax systems and regulatory environments. Doing business within the United States, or with U.S. companies, requires investors and legal advisers to have some knowledge of the U.S. legal, tax and regulatory systems. The course of study for the International Commercial Law LL.M. is designed to provide students with that background.

YOUTH PROGRAMSThe Center for International Education at the University of California, Davis, a leader in interdisciplinary study, offers unique, fun programs specifically designed for international students ages 12-17. We introduce junior high and high school students to a world-class university campus and let them enjoy spending time exploring and learning with students from around the world.

We provide an attentive and enriching educational experience in a truly distinctive setting that allows students to take advantage of our campus’ academic breadth and outside-of-the-classroom programs.

Youth Programs

SUMMER PROGRAMS FOR INDIVIDUAL STUDENTSIndividual students may enroll in summer youth programs to expand their knowledge of English language and culture (for non-native English speakers), science and technology, and college preparation. Each program increases students’ confidence and self-reliance. Activities on the UC Davis campus, as well as program-specific field trips, are integrated into the educational experience.

For example, the English and Culture Program (for non-native English speakers) is perfect for international students wanting to improve their English language skills and understanding of American culture. The four-week program consists of English classes in the morning and facilitated language development activities in the afternoons. All-day excursions take place on Saturdays. This program is offered in July and August.

FRIENDSHIPS THAT LAST A LIFETIME.

Zhaozhong (Tony) Du: A Success Story“Tony” Du attended the U.S. College Preparation Program as a junior in high school in China. He expressed interest in applying to a liberal arts school in the United States, so during his junior year he applied to 11 schools. Six schools accepted him—including Pratt Institute, Maryland Institute College of Art, Temple University, University of Colorado Boulder, New Jersey Institute of Technology and University of Massachusetts Amherst.

He chose the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and is currently going into his sophomore year. He is one of many who have been admitted to universities across the United States after attending the U.S. College Preparation Program. These students not only become more knowledgeable about applying to a U.S. college, but have better writing skills. They are always thrilled when they receive a letter of recommendation from the instructor after completing the program requirements.

GROW!


INTERNATIONAL CUSTOM PROGRAMSFor more than 35 years, the Center for International Education at UC Davis Extension has created custom programs for many government organizations, including Ministries of Education and major universities. International custom programs are based on specialized knowledge from the University of California, Davis, or on a specific need utilizing knowledge from multiple institutions, including the University of California, members of industry, and the U.S. and state governments. We identify outstanding instructors to develop the highest quality curricula tailored to specific client needs. Depending on the length and content of study, students in custom programs may receive certificates of attendance, certificates of academic credit or diplomas.

International Custom Programs

Our ProcessYou will work with one of our program coordinators to explore program options to fit your specific needs. Schedules, dates and fees will be incorporated into a written proposal. If you are working with an independent agency for administrative services, we will work with them to handle logistical details. At the conclusion of the program, our program coordinator will provide a detailed report, including student evaluations, feedback and suggestions for improvement.

Online LearningThe Center for International Education has a strong online learning portfolio. It possesses a breadth of courses and certificate programs that can be accessed throughout the world. We can also design online and hybrid programs that include online curriculum with traditional on-site instruction, based on both internal University of California strengths and current needs of international clients. Some program examples include information technology, teacher training, education, agriculture, viticulture, human resources, business and leadership, and English composition.

Takahiro Sasaki: A Success StoryThe Center for International Education’s Japanese Ag Training Program originated more than 15 years ago. Each year, trainees come for nine weeks of academic instruction in specialty fields of agriculture and agribusiness. Takahiro attended in 2008, and after returning to Japan he began a start-up vegetable farm. Due to unfortunate circumstances, the farm did not do well, but “Taka” did not give up. He decided to return to the United States where he enrolled in a community college and then eventually transferred to California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly). During his senior year, Taka reconnected with the Japanese Ag Training Program and was hired as a program interpreter. This fall Taka will officially return to student life, this time as a graduate student at UC Davis.

HERE WITH YOU


STUDENT SERVICESThe Center for International Education provides our students with all the support and services they need to have a successful experience. International students have access to most facilities and privileges available at UC Davis. These include libraries, wireless Internet access, sports and recreational facilities, the Memorial Union, the Student Health and Wellness Center, the Unitrans bus system and many more—sometimes with a small additional fee. We also provide students with personal assistance and advising on academic and visa issues, grade reports and continuous help-desk assistance.

Student Services

#1 in the nation (Princeton Review 2015) for its Student Health Services program

Visas and Immigration AssistanceUC Davis is authorized under federal law to enroll nonimmigrant students and to manage and extend their immigration documents.

Medical InsuranceInternational students must have medical insurance that is valid in the United States. They must show proof of insurance coverage in English at registration (a minimum of $500,000 U.S. dollars in coverage). Otherwise, students must purchase medical insurance at registration. We are currently able to provide excellent coverage at a rate of $40 per week.*

Student Health and Wellness Center (SHCS)SHCS provides quality and cost-sensitive care tailored to the unique and diverse needs of students. The center provides campus health and wellness resources that enable students to successfully achieve their academic goals and promote lifelong wellness.

Smoke and Tobacco Free CampusUC Davis is a Smoke and Tobacco Free Campus. Smoking is not allowed in campus buildings, including dormitories, or on campus property, including parking lots and rental units. Free tobacco cessation services are available to all registered students.

Preparation for Your DepartureBefore you travel to your program, make sure you have your immigration documents (I-20, passport and visa) and proof of medical insurance in English (if purchased at home). You may also want to book in advance your transportation from the airport to your destination in Davis. The Davis Airporter provides transportation from the Sacramento International Airport (SMF) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO) to Davis. Visit http://davisairporter.com



HOUSINGThe Center for International Education (CIE) Housing office helps students with a variety of housing options, including homestay, apartments and dormitories (summers only).

Housing

HomestayWith a homestay arrangement you will live with a local family and experience an American family lifestyle. There are many benefits to being placed with a homestay host family. The cultural experience is unmatched by any other residential placement and is an excellent way to expand your cultural and educational experience. Homestay housing arrangements are not one-size-fits all. You can choose to have your own room or you can share a room with another student. You can eat all or some of your meals with your host family. Or, you can choose to take care of all of your meals on your own. You choose the situation that best meets your needs.

Renting a Room in a Private House or Apartment Many Davis families and student groups rent out rooms in their own homes for approximately $450-$700 per month. Renting a room is an excellent opportunity to live with others who are not part of the International Programs. Students can make these arrangements on their own once they arrive in Davis.

DormitoriesDormitories (conveniently located near the UC Davis campus) are often open to international students during the summer. Students share a room with one other student. Rooms come equipped with two beds, dressers and desks. Meals are provided in the campus dining halls, and membership at the Activities and Recreation Center is included.

Housing for University GroupsIf you are a university or organization that will be sending a group of students, CIE Housing is here to help you arrange housing for your group. We will work with you to find the housing that best fits the needs of your specific group.

For more information about any of the above, visit our website at extension.ucdavis.edu/housing or contact the Center for International Education Housing office at [email protected] or +1 (530) 757-8988.
