Students desiring information about specific research interests are encouraged to correspond directly with faculty. The UCI community is composed of a culturally and ethnically diverse population of students and faculty. This is evidenced by a wide range of unique cultural activities, clubs, and organizations. We are committed to maintaining this international atmosphere, and we encourage applications from minorities and women. All students admitted to the program receive an annual stipend to cover living expenses, and University fees and tuition costs.
Fellowships are available to students of exceptional promise in their first year of graduate study.
Housing A wide variety of affordable housing is available in the UCI area.

UCI maintains 863 apartments in Verano Place and 204 additional apartments in Palo Verde for full-time registered graduate students. All have carpeting, draperies, a stove, and refrigerator.
