We seek to continue to build on UCI Armenian Studies, thus transforming it into one of the leading programs in which to pursue Armenian Studies. We aspire to develop the Armenian Studies Program at UCI into one of the leading academic programs in which to pursue Armenian Studies.

We aim to prepare new generations of specialists in the field who will be able to contribute to its scholarship in novel and significant ways. To accomplish these goals and develop the Center for Armenian Studies, we are pursuing an endowment.
