UC Irvine 101

By Chris Werner


Irvine is located in Orange County and is actually set between Los Angeles and San Diego. Irvine is only minutes away from the beach, world-class restaurants, low crime rates and also great shopping places. One of the greatest universities from the sunny California is University of California - Irvine. With a large campus in addition to a spectacular climate to start, it is extremely easy to lay down ones educational roots here.

When you enter the campus grounds, don't be overwhelmed. There are a lot of on-campus facilities there, as well as people milling about. You can visit the Student Center in case you need help, or one of the study areas, computer labs and social hubs for every kind of study session. If a more laid-back time is what you are looking for, you can join the other students under the sun in the courtyard area or go to the food court and try the yummy selections there.

You can easily find a course to take there that matches your interest. With a wide array of course programs, it is not surprising to learn that with it comes with some of the most well-known and established professors in America, if not the world. Most importantly, you will discover that the professors there are extremely accommodating and willing to talk to you after class.

You also get to experience a more personalized instruction within and beyond the classroom with their world-class cultural and research programs. You will never once feel like an outsider there. The university also offers a ton of clubs and programs to further your learning pursuits. Whether you are the artistic type or interested in helping out with a cause, for sure there at least one bound to catch your eye. No matter what your major is, internships and other kinds of employment are available for you. In fact, this helped me learn what to expect once I graduate.

The social scene within the campus is really as diverse as the student's ethnic backgrounds. When the sun is up, you're able to do many things. A gym allows health buffs and also the state of the art athletics facilities if you want to catch a game or two. You can head out across the street to visit the stalls. You can even come across a boba drink stall near a canopy which carries Hello Kitty items. In the evening, you can either hang out at the pub for some down time together with your buddies or maybe inside the walls of one's dormitory room, enjoying a film.

If that is still in sufficient, allow me to tell you several of the students services that you can take advantage of. Day care, health clinics and insurance centers and even tutoring! The university provides efficiently of all kinds of essentials. In addition to that, there is a round the clock foot and roving security vehicle around the university grounds. So if perhaps finals week arrives and you find yourself late into the evening burning the midnight oil in the library, don't be alarmed. It is 100 % secure.
