Natural & Built Environment
The natural and built environment at UCI, from our Naturescape (open spaces) to our buildings and infrastructure, play a critical role in promoting a culture of wellbeing. Our commitment to protect and preserve our natural land and resources, and the biophilic design of our buildings that capture natural light and conserve energy, demonstrates a strong commitment to a campus vision that values and places importance on the wellbeing of place (our campus) and planet.
