Giving Day 2026

UC Irvine’s Giving Day provides crucial support for Donald Bren School of Information & Computer Sciences (ICS) undergraduate and graduate students and their amazing cutting-edge research, and investment in the future workforce. ICS is filled with entrepreneurs, innovators, future professors and researchers who are dedicated to making the world a better, safer place. Whether you contribute to one of our named funds supporting a specific area close to you, or give to the ICS Dean’s Excellence Fund, which is a support fund that goes to our areas of greatest need, you will be making a significant impact on ICS and the lives of our students.

More importantly, you will be investing in the future by allowing important research to continue in the areas of AI, bioinformatics, cybersecurity, data science and software engineering, to name just a few of the key research curricula that have become the backbone of ICS. With your help, ICS students can and will remain at the forefront of computer science, informatics and statistics, ensuring no student is left behind.
