UC Irvine Giving Day 2025

The Office of the Vice Provost for Teaching and Learning was founded with the goal of affecting students’ academic and future success through campus and community partnerships. We want to leave an enduring impact through empowering education. To do so, we’ve focused on providing new opportunities for undergraduates and communicating evidence-based practices that faculty and staff then use to improve successful student learning.

Perhaps our largest division, the Division of Undergraduate Education, encompasses many of our most popular programs that create unique communities of like-minded students on campus, such as the Campuswide Honors Collegium (CHC) and Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP).  Our student enrichment programs focus on giving students a well-rounded college experience because creating challenges outside the classroom is one of the proven keys to success after graduation.  That’s why places like the ANTrepreneur Center, where we support student startups, are so vital to setting UCI apart and creating an enduring impact that includes upward social mobility.

But while we encourage enthusiasm, we also acknowledge that many of our students struggle with the transition to life on campus, making our Student Success Initiatives all the more important.  Using a student-focused approach ensures that everyone who’s accepted to UCI feels like they have the tools and support system to finish their degree.  Which is why providing these tools and support systems are such an integral part of the work that the DUE does on campus.  Places like the Writing and Communication Center and Peer Academic Advising help students feel like they don’t have to go through it alone, that there are others like them.

We believe that together we can positively change the lives of our students and make UC Irvine the university that all others emulate in the space of student success. You help us do all that and more. Learn more about our programs and how your Giving Day gift can amplify the impact they're having on our student body, by clicking any of the program buttons below.
