At UCI, we explore every aspect of the human experience in all its diversity, from the different languages we speak, to the cultures that shape us, to the stories we tell about ourselves. We educate our students to be culturally aware agents of change in our interconnected and increasingly diverse world.

As the world changes at an ever-faster rate, our efforts to understand our shifting place in the world needs to keep pace. With your partnership, we can better apprehend the implications of societal advances, promote the full range of human expression and foster creativity in our intellectual endeavors.
