About San Francisco Bay University

Have you ever wondered why higher education feels stuck? Or thought, what if we could rebuild it from the ground up? Imagine a university where disciplines don't dictate the subjects, where learning is trans-disciplinary, open-ended, flexible, and deeply connected to real-world needs. A place where we learn across disciplinary boundaries, work through skills that matter, and turn critical ideas into real action.

If you've ever dreamed of tearing up the rulebook, of rethinking education in bold, creative, and disruptive ways, you might belong here. San Francisco Bay University is embarking on a bold experiment in higher education, and we're looking for the people who will make it real.
