官方简介

The University of California, Irvine combines the strengths of a major research university with the bounty of an incomparable Southern California location. Over four remarkable decades, UCI has become internationally recognized for efforts that are improving lives through research and discovery, fostering excellence in scholarship and teaching, and engaging and enriching the community. UCI is among the fastest-growing campuses in the UC system. Increasingly a first-choice campus for students, UCI attracts record numbers of undergraduate applications each year and admits freshmen with highly competitive academic profiles. In 2007-08, the UC Regents approved UCI's new law school, and we enrolled our first undergraduates in public health and nursing science, expanding our educational role in fields critical to California's health and prosperity. UCI is a center for quality education and is consistently ranked among the nation's best universities. Achievements in the sciences, arts, humanities, medicine, and management have garnered top 50 national rankings for more than 40 academic programs. Three UCI researchers have won Nobel Prizes - most recently Irwin A. Rose, in chemistry, in 2004. UCI reaches beyond the classroom and laboratory to help solve societal issues and support human development. We are a hub for stem cell research, a trailblazer in understanding global warming, and a leader in the fight against breast cancer. Our nationally ranked medical center in the city of Orange serves as Orange County's only Level I trauma center and UCI is currently building a new state-of-the-art university hospital that will further strengthen medical care for the region's citizens. A major intellectual and cultural center, UCI offers numerous public activities and events. The Chancellor's Distinguished Fellows Series brings renowned speakers to campus, including E.L. Doctorow, author of the best-selling novel The March; William Julius Wilson, expert on race relations in America; and Mary Robinson, former president of Ireland and United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. The Claire Trevor School of the Arts and the School of Humanities produce engaging and entertaining cultural programs, while UCI's Anteater athletes have won nearly two dozen national championships. UCI is benefiting the community and the world in countless ways through its scholarly, scientific, creative, and economic contributions. Orange County's second-largest employer, UCI generates an annual economic impact on the county of $3.7 billion. A recently completed strategic plan will ensure the campus continues to inspire excellence as it fulfills its research, teaching, and public service missions in the decades ahead. These accomplishments depend on the UCI community's commitment to a set of core values: respect, intellectual curiosity, commitment, integrity, empathy, appreciation, and fun. These values allow people to transcend limitations and create something greater than themselves. We are proud that -- at UCI -- we live these values every day.
