The University of California, Irvine School of Law is the culmination of several generations of revolutionary dreamers. Those not satisfied with the status quo wanted to redefine, reimagine, and reinvent legal education. Celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2018, UCI Law begins its second decade as a larger, stronger, more dynamic academic institution than its founders could have ever imagined.

UCI Law provides an innovative and comprehensive curriculum and prioritizes public service and a commitment to diversity within the legal profession. UCI Law students have completed more than 125,000 hours of pro bono work in the past decade. Forty-six percent of UCI Law's graduates are students of color. At UCI Law, we are driven to improve our local, national and global communities by grappling with important issues as scholars, as practitioners and as teachers who are preparing the next generation of leaders.

The collaborative and interdisciplinary community at UCI Law includes extraordinary students, world-renowned faculty, dedicated staff, engaged alumni and enthusiastic supporters. We look forward to continuing our remarkable journey with our faculty, staff, students, alumni and community partners.
