The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at UC Irvine is a vibrant community for adults 50+ who want to keep exploring, engaging and growing.
Designed for intellectually active adults, OLLI offers world-class courses in everything from current events and medicine to music, film, history and science. Our short courses are led by UC Irvine faculty and local experts. No grades. No homework. Just great conversations and new discoveries!
Research shows that ongoing learning in later life is associated with better cognitive function, roughly the equivalent of delaying cognitive aging by nearly six years. At OLLI, learning isn’t just enriching, it’s empowering.
