The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at California State University, Monterey Bay is a dynamic learning community for adults age 50 and up. An OLLI Membership opens up a world of discovery — fresh, curated courses (with no exams or grades) taught by CSUMB faculty and distinguished experts in their fields. OLLI fulfills the promise of education in its best sense: to develop the mind and spirit for a lifetime of purpose and flourishing. 

Established in 2007, OLLI@CSUMB is one of 124 Osher Lifelong Learning Institutes nationwide. Support comes from The Bernard Osher Foundation, membership fees and donations.
