Greetings:

Welcome to the UC Irvine Department of Education. Please use this website to explore the many opportunities and programs that are available to students, ranging from an undergraduate minor in Educational Studies to Master's degrees and Ph.D. in Education.

Studying at UC Irvine offers distinct benefits. Students can look forward to academic guidance by committed and accomplished faculty. Opportunities for research, community service, and field experience introduce students to the diverse populations that call California home, and they gain an appreciation for the unique historic, geographic, and socioeconomic conditions of the most populous state in our nation.

As a research university, we also seek to advance knowledge of educational processes, practices, and policies from early childhood through higher education. A partial listing of current faculty research areas includes language acquisition, cognition and learning, child and youth development, technology in education, out-of-school learning, diversity in social context, among others.

The University of California, one of the most prestigious university systems in the world, welcomes your interest, and we encourage you to contact us for additional information you may need. Please peruse our website regularly as we will be posting news, information and events as they develop.
