We Are UC Irvine Law
The University of California Irvine School of Law is the culmination of several generations of revolutionary dreamers. Those not satisfied with the status quo who wanted to redefine, reimagine, and reinvent legal education. Celebrating its 15th anniversary in 2023, the University of California, Irvine School of Law continues its second decade a larger, stronger, more dynamic academic institution than its founders could have ever imagined.
