Overview






The Paul Merage School of Business at UC Irvine offers four dynamic MBA programs – plus PhD and undergraduate business degrees – that deliver its thematic approach to business education: sustained growth through strategic innovation. We graduate leaders with the exceptional ability to help grow their organizations through strategic innovation  – supported by analytical decision-making, information technology and collaborative execution, and enhanced by a highly-personalized learning environment. In-class and on-site experiences with real-world business issues give our students the edge needed to help companies compete in today’s global economy.

Six Centers of Excellence, an Executive Education program and a variety of conferences and colloquia provide numerous opportunities for students and the business community at large to enhance their education experience and update their professional expertise.

BusinessWeek places the School within its Top 50 national listing and specifically ranks faculty research and publications at #20.
