Every day we hear of new advances in science and technology. Unfortunately, we hear far less about the implications and impacts of these advances. The humanities help us find our human center, inspiring conversations that matter about our shared future. UCI Humanities are dedicated to providing the space, the UCI Humanities Center, where these crucial discussions can take place.

While humanities disciplines are as diverse as the human experience itself, every humanities graduate student pursues deep, new knowledge essential to our world's future. Humanities graduate students need support to pursue the innovative, human-centered research that will allow them to address our world's challenges for years to come. You can make a transformative impact on the future of knowledge by investing in UCI Humanities graduate students.

In our classrooms, students grow as thinkers and scholars in their chosen fields. Learning experiences beyond the classroom take students to the next level. This includes experiences like internships, mentored research, study abroad, workshops and training in professionally valuable skills, conversations with creators and scholars and so much more. With your support, every student can have access to these transformational experiences.
