The University of California, Riverside, is organized into three academic colleges, two professional schools, and several interdisciplinary divisions. These units provide 81 majors and 52 minors, 48 master's degree programs, and 42 PhD programs. It is the only UC campus to offer undergraduate degrees in Creative Writing and Public Policy, and one of only three UCs (along with Berkeley and Irvine) to offer an undergraduate degree in Business Administration. Additionally, UCR's doctoral program in the emerging field of Dance theory, founded in 1992, was the first program of its kind in the United States. UCR's various academic units are as follows: *College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences: CHASS can trace its history to the founding undergraduate institution at UCR, the College of Letters and Science, which first opened in 1954. The most popular majors are Psychology (1,045 undergraduates) and Business Administration (1,170 undergraduates).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Fall 2006 Headcount Enrollment by College/School, Dept/Area & Major )(Third link from the top.)〕 The Philosophical Gourmet Report ranked UCR's faculty in philosophy 38th in the nation and 40th in the English-speaking world, with the No. 1 program in philosophy of action. *College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences: CNAS dates back to 1907 when the Citrus Experiment Station was founded at the base of Riverside's Mt. Rubidoux. In 1958, the College of Agriculture was formed as the first research oriented, degree granting institution at UCR. The most popular majors are Biological Chemistry (747 undergraduates), Biology (801.5 undergraduates) and an interdepartmental Biological Sciences program (1,206.5 undergraduates).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Fall 2007 Headcount Enrollment by College/School, Dept/Area & Major )(Third link from the top.)〕 According to the Faculty Scholarly Productivity Index published by Academic Analytics in 2006, CNAS faculty ranked 1st in soil science, 8th in Environmental Sciences, 10th in Plant Pathology, and 10th in Botany.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= The Chronicle of Higher Education )〕 *Bourns College of Engineering: The BCOE is named in honor of Marlan and Rosemary Bourns, founders of Bourns, Inc., an international electronics corporation, in recognition of a generous gift from the Bourns Foundation in 1994. The most popular majors are Mechanical Engineering (354 undergraduates), followed by Computer Science (217 undergraduates).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Fall 2007 Headcount Enrollment by College/School, Dept/Area & Major )(Third link from the top.)〕 The Department of Computer Science and Engineering owns the largest single Altix 4700 computer in the University of California system, powered by 64 Intel Itanium 2 processor cores and 128GB of system memory. According to Academic Analytics, BCOE faculty ranked 5th in Environmental Health Engineering in 2006.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= The Chronicle of Higher Education )〕 *Division of Biomedical Sciences: Biomedical Sciences is an interdisciplinary division at UCR which administers a joint medical degree program with UCLA, the Thomas Haider program. The first two years of medical instruction are given on the UCR campus. Third- and fourth-year clerkships are served at UCLA and its affiliated medical centers. Students completing the program receive a bachelor of science degree in biomedical sciences from UCR and an M.D. degree from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. Up to 24 of each year's applicants are chosen to attend medical school at UCR and UCLA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://biomed.ucr.edu/content/view/25/49/ )〕 *A.
