Intervarsity Christian Fellowship is an inter-denominational, multi-ethnic group of UC Davis students who, in response to God's truth, grace, and love, wish to establish a witnessing community who follow Jesus as Savior and Lord. They are dedicated to grow in love for God, God's Word, God's people of every ethnicity and culture, and God's purposes in the world.

Intervarsity is the oldest campus spiritual fellowship organization at UC Davis (1950) and is part of a large national organization with chapters at a majority of college campuses. Intervarsity USA has its own publishing arm and is part of a larger international group called "International Fellowship of Evangelical Students" (IFES). Prospective attendees may wish to peruse the publications of InterVarsity Press to get an idea of the values espoused by Intervarsity Christian Fellowship.

Starting with the 2007-2008 school year, the campus group will be meeting on Thursdays at 7:30 pm. The night usually begins with worship and announcements followed by a talk by a staff member or guest speaker. Frequently people can ask for prayer when they feel prompted to do so. The group excels in leadership training through coaching bible study leaders and conferences. There are many conferences designed for freshmen, graduating seniors, minority groups, and the fellowship as a whole. They host bible study groups on campus for freshmen in different dormitories, and off campus for upper division students on varying days of the week.

Intervarsity hosted a talk on Faith vs. Science on January 26, 2006 with chemistry professor Dr. Enderle examining whether one can simultaneously be a scientist and a person of faith. This talk was hosted again recently with Dr. Enderle on January 31, 2007. A recording of the talk can be found here.
