UCI Graduate Division Mission Statement
Graduate education is what differentiates a university from a college.
At UCI Graduate Division, we strive to:
- Recruit the best students to UCI and provide them a high-quality experience and education;
- Provide the graduate-level educational resources they need before, during, and after their time
at UCI; - Help them launch their careers, whether it be in academia, industry, entrepreneurship, non-profit, or government.
To do this, we must excel at diversity, equity, and inclusion, student success and wellness, lifelong learning, and partnership with industry.
“UCI is a place where everyone can thrive. Our diversity in thought and our collective commitment for change leaves me hopeful for a bright and equitable future.”
