OVERVIEW
With 64 faculty members spanning 3 departments: Computer Science, Informatics and Statistics, a new 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 250 Ph.D. and 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.

The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (HSSOE) offers a degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering with concentrations in some areas within the field of Computer Science.DISCONTINUED CONCENTRATIONS:
These degree concentrations have been discontinued, but exist as specializations within the Computer Science degree. The degree requirements below are still available as a reference for students who enrolled in the concentration prior to its discontinuation.
The Bren School offers a Master of Science degree in Information and Computer Science with a concentration in Embedded Systems in collaboration with Italy's Istituto di Cibernetica Eduardo Caianiello. Students will study two quarters at the UC Irvine campus with three subsequent quarters spent in Naples, Italy.

Guy Yosiphon was looking for a challenge. After earning a bachelor degree he worked in the software industry for two and a half years as a programmer and project leader. The work was rewarding, but he missed the challenge of academic studies and the scientific research environment, two things he found in the Ph.D. program at the Bren School.
