OVERVIEW
With 70 faculty members spanning three departments: Computer Science, Informatics and Statistics, a state-of-the-art 90,000 sq. ft. building and a recent $20 million gift from philanthropist Donald Bren, this is a very exciting time to be a part of the Bren School.
We invite you to explore our areas of research and respective faculty information.
You'll be joining our more than 200 Ph.D. and nearly 100 Masters students studying virtually every principle area within the fields of Computer Science, Informatics and Statistics as well as many new interdisciplinary areas.
Almost all of our Ph.D. students receive financial aid in the form of teaching assistantships or research assistantships during their time at UC Irvine.
Our graduates have received job offers from many top academic institutions and industrial labs.
