state university system
Government-funded higher education
A state university system is a network of public universities and colleges governed together under a single administrative structure, funded primarily by a U.S. state government.
The University of California system and the State University of New York system are prominent examples.
These systems typically include flagship research universities, regional campuses, and community colleges, allowing students to transfer credits between institutions.
