Membership in the Center for Sex Research


The Center for Sex Research operates under the Institute of Social and Behavioral Sciences in the College of Social and Behavioral Science.

Membership is open to the faculty of the various Colleges of California State University and to other invited professionals, not affiliated with this University, who have demonstrated scholarly work in the field of sexuality and/or who have contributed to the development of theory, knowledge and practice in this area.

Students minoring in human sexuality may wish to become student (non- voting) members of the Center for Sex Research. They may apply by sending a request to the Director of the Center for Sex Research. Verification of enrollment in the minor program will be determined by the Coordinator of the program.

All membership applications are reviewed by a committee of the active, on- campus members and presented to the members at a regular meeting of the Center for Sex Research.
