Be Part of the Brilliant Future
|
UCI's Brilliant Future campaign is not about our brilliant future. Its's about yours. It's for the entire Anteater family - past, present, future - those whom we've adopted and those who've adopted us. This campaign is an opportunity to demonstrate, as never before, our shared passion for what UCI stands for. We are champions of true potential - the potential within people, the potential for new ideas, they potential that's realized when we work together.
The UCI School of Medicine shines on the world stage as an enterprising champion of innovation and discovery. To learn more about the brilliant future the School of Medicine has in store,
