Candidates will also receive a generous start up package in which money can be allocated toward the purchase of a home.
UCI was recently the recent recipient of two very generous gifts….
In 2016, the William and Sue Gross Family Foundation donated $40 million to establish a school of nursing, which was formally approved in 2017, making it the newest nursing school in the prestigious University of California system. The UC Irvine Sue & Bill Gross School of Nursing is distinguished by its community-based approach to promoting, improving, and sustaining health and wellness throughout the community. The school is ranked among the top 50 in research funding, and dedicated to advancing evidence-based clinical practice and the discipline of Nursing through scholarly research, education, and practice.
Earlier this year, the University of California, Irvine received the largest gift in its history, a $200 million donation from Susan and Henry Samueli to name the first of its kind Susan and Henry Samueli College of Health Sciences, which will position UCI as a new leader in population health, patient care, education, and research. The school of nursing will be one of four academic units in the College of Health Sciences, including the Schools of Medicine, Pharmacy, and Population Health, creating many opportunities for interdisciplinary research.
