OSU-Cascades is a campus of Oregon State University located in the outdoor recreation mecca of Bend, Oregon. Explore your academic potential while you hit the slopes of Mt. Bachelor, raft down the Deschutes River, or climb South Sister. Think of it as having a great outdoor experience while you choose from any of our 20 different degree options.

More importantly, OSU-Cascades has extra small class sizes, one-on-one mentoring by world-class faculty, and creative course delivery, that makes for a dynamic learning experience. Students find a personal approach to academics on a vibrant, student-centered campus.

This is all possible because of the partnerships we have formed with Central Oregon Community College and the University of Oregon. Once admitted to OSU-Cascades, students take lower division classes from COCC and upper division classes from the university offering the degree and program of their choice. An OSU-Cascades four-year degree is seamless and more affordable for the student.

Cascades' international opportunities include a degree option in International Ecotourism as well as hundreds of student and internship programs around the world.
