La Sierra University
Encyclopedia : L : LA : LAS : La Sierra University
Founded in 1922, La Sierra University is a private, co-educational Christian university located in inland Southern California in the city of Riverside, California. La Sierra University is part of the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) system of higher education.
In 1967, Loma Linda University and La Sierra University joined their undergraduate programs to form a two-campus university. And although formal ties ended in 1990, the pre-professional programs still benefit from that relationship: La Sierra is known to be a major feeder school for Loma Linda.
The University offers graduate and undergraduate curricula in applied and liberal arts and sciences, business and management, religion, and programs for professional education in fulfillment of requirements for teaching credentials. The highest degree offered is the Ed.D.
Nearby is the affiliated Seventh-day Adventist K-12 school, La Sierra Academy; and the unrelated public high school, La Sierra High School.
