It Begins with Innovation<br />
1865. A visionary Yale graduate sees the educational potential in the newly-admitted state<br />
along the Pacific Coast. He sets out to build a university there, and a century later, the UC<br />
system transforms education and becomes a model for public universities across the<br />
country.<br />
1965. <strong>The</strong> farsighted UC Regents identify the Irvine Ranch as an ideal location for a new<br />
and vital link in the UC chain. <strong>The</strong> Irvine campus transparently integrates into the<br />
surrounding community, and carries on the UC spirit <strong>of</strong> commitment to cutting-edge<br />
research, innovative thinking, and forward-moving education.<br />
Today. Among the fastest-growing campuses in the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> California system, UC<br />
Irvine increasingly tops student lists <strong>of</strong> college choices, and continues to admit top-tier<br />
students. As the county’s third-largest employer, UC Irvine generates an annual economic<br />
impact on Orange County <strong>of</strong> more than $3 billion. <strong>The</strong> campus is recognized as a driving<br />
force for innovation and discovery that impacts the local, national and global<br />
communities.<br />
Tomorrow. At the brink <strong>of</strong> another new era, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Paul</strong> <strong>Merage</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Business</strong> at UC<br />
Irvine is fast becoming a premier business school. Our pioneering curriculum and worldclass<br />
faculty are attracting business leaders, the best and brightest students and the<br />
global companies that recruit them. We continue to gather accolades and ever-higher<br />
rankings from sources including <strong>Business</strong>Week, U.S. News, and the Financial Times. As the<br />
youngest university with a business school ranked among the top 50 MBA programs,<br />
we’re changing the face <strong>of</strong> business education.<br />
