Meet Andre Brown.
First-generation college graduate. Community health advocate. And, someday soon, doctor.
Andre enrolled in the Health Professions Post-Bac Program, a partnership between UC Davis Continuing and Professional Education (CPE) and the College of Biological Sciences, to realize his dream of attending the UC Davis School of Medicine.
The result? He started his Community Health Scholars program at the School of Medicine in fall 2024, focusing on improving care in underserved communities.
Andre’s story is unique, but not uncommon. Like the tens of thousands of students CPE serves each year, he used education to achieve his goals.
By making that education accessible – through technology, through passionate instructors, through the incredible expertise and resources of UC Davis – we create opportunity. We support and celebrate our students as they advance their careers, enrich their communities and build the lives they aspire to lead.
Impact starts here. At UC Davis Continuing and Professional Education.
– Julie Greenwood, Ph.D.
Dean of UC Davis Continuing and Professional Education

Partner with CPE
UC Davis Continuing and Professional Education is built on partnership — collaborating with schools and colleges across campus to connect their research, knowledge and resources to working professionals and other “non-traditional” learners.
You have the subject-area expertise. We have the experience and infrastructure to reach students you don’t currently serve. By working together, we have a unique, innovative opportunity to advance the larger campus mission.
If you have an idea, we’d love to discuss it. Contact one of our academic leaders and let’s see if we can build something together.
