Parking was surprisingly easy thanks to the students running the lot and directing traffic--they…read moredid a great job keeping everything organized and moving smoothly. That said, security felt a bit overzealous, which took away from the overall experience. The seating also needs some attention. I ended up trying two different seats, and both were broken--they leaned too far back to be comfortable. On the positive side, the sound system was solid and the facility itself is easy to navigate, which made getting around hassle-free. Just be aware that outside food and drinks aren't allowed, and unfortunately the concession stand has very limited options, which was a bit disappointing

When you need admin services from the school, it usually gets done, but it often requires persistence. With recent retirements and staffing churn, it can be uneven in spots.

Some groups are very welcoming and supportive, while others are more independent or competitive depending on the field.

They clearly are biased toward their MBAs and specialty masters are just there to give them money (FYI it's not worth to do a specialty masters) Biggest gripe is they tell you to do the exact opposite of what they teach you because of thier illogical policies Go somewhere cheaper. Campus will be prettier, loving situation will be cheaper and you will get a better education, career, and probably network too

My family and I attended an older, classic rock/orchestral event at this venue…read more Located on the UC Irvine campus, this theatre is very nice and modern. The lobby was very clean and shiny, and the restrooms were large and clean. The theatre's interior was very beautiful and comfortable. Every comfortable seat in the theatre offers a perfect view of the stage, and the sound system was perfect. The employees were all very friendly and professional, and they assisted anyone and everyone who needed help. Though the music was a tad different from what we are used to on the radio, the performers worked hard and did a GREAT job of keeping the audience engaged and entertained.

We have been here a few times and the last visit was for a screening of National Theatre Live: Dr…read more Strangelove. Being a huge fan of the film, I rushed to get tickets thinking it was actual live stage performance, then come to find out it was just a screening. Oops! Don't rush, take your time when purchasing for a show. The screening itself was adapted from Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece. Nothing can replace the original cast of this iconic film; however, the stage version was pretty impressive with the handling of the changing of stage scenes. It was highly abbreviated though, in my opinion. Tickets were for General Admission so we chose our seats upon doors opening. Every seat (approximately 750 seats) in the house seems to have non-obstructive view. We went for the first row center on the balcony level. Love this view. If you need a snack, there is wine, beer, water, soft drinks, and packaged snacks like cookies, chips, and candies for sale. Parking is in the structure right next to the theatre. (US$10-15) Ushers and all staff were very polite and courteous. Enjoy!

tl,dr: Great department. Pretty progressive. Numerous and various opportunities…read more I did MS MAE and BS ME & AE, so my review pertains more to those. Likes: - Killer design classes: Engr7A+B, MAE52, MAE106, MAE172/280, Engr165/265, 245. If YOU don't take these, I WILL regret it. - You'll need Matlab over the course of your curriculum, so MAE10 is a fundamental start. - And while you're at it, make as many friends as you can in your lower-divs. - If you take MAE115, you learn how to predict rain! - Take every class you can with Dr Edwin Hernandez. He's hilarious! - Professor Haithem Taha only teaches the hard courses, so he records his lectures for your review. Super thoughtful. Very open to questions. - MAE175 Dynamics and Control of Aerospace Vehicles (Taha) teaches the fundamentals of flight control! Ever wonder WHY ailerons and elevators work, why airplanes have had high wings or dihedral wings? 175 is for you! - Drs Marc Madou and Lawrence Kulinsky taught MAE153/253 for me. Straightforward class, great teachers! Easy credits. - They have a wind tunnel lab for you to conduct aerodynamics experiments in MAE108. - They have a professional and organized system with counselors to prepare you for success and timely graduation. - E-Week is spectacular. If only the mechanical anteater wasn't a bull. - I guarantee your job will involve design. MAE52 (SolidWorks) is a magnificent start, since they don't teach Creo or AutoCAD here. - LOVE the Engr Career Fairs. So many freebies!! Nonlikes: - Regardless whether you aced 0 or 10 AP exams, still gotta take a BUNCH of lower-divs: Math 2D, 2E, 3A, 3D, Physics 7C CL, 7D 7L, 7E, Chem 1LE. I already learned basic Newtonian mechanics and electricity and magnetism, yet they made me "re-learn" it in 7C and 7D... Wasted talent, time, MONEY. Also, I won't need to know about optics or superconductors, so they should've made Phys 7E and Chem 1LE electives. Interesting classes, but no reason to be degree requirements. - MAE200B was the epitome of useless stuff I had to take. Ruined my 4.0 GPA in order to graduate within 1 year. - You touch on numerous corners of MAE, yet your future job will only use 10% of it. As in, the upper divs (MAE130A, MAE130B, MAE146 to name a few) touch on fluid boundary layers, astronomy, HVAC, even how to predict rain! Yet my job mainly uses skills from MAE52 (transferred my SolidWorks into Creo), Engr54 and MAE150 (stress analysis and FEA), MAE120 (heat transfer). That is, I use only 5 out of the 70 classes I took to get my degrees... - UCI MAE teaches all this theory and research stuff, but does not focus on employment skills, such as using Creo Parametric, AutoCAD, and Catia, or how to manage tolerances (some materials are harder to precision machine than others). Waste! - The engr trailer computer lab before the Fuel Cell Research Center smelled musty during my college career. Hope they AC'ed and cleaned the place by now. - Parking at APS is a pain. Always crowded all the way to the roof all day everyday!

It was a pretty extensive treatment--every 9 months I would come in and did so approximately 8 or 9 treatments.

As a nurse myself I appreciate top quality expertise and service. From Viola and Andrea at the front desk handing and scheduling procedures to Nicole keeping my baby engaged and happy before and after procedures to Nurse Pam setting us up for success prior to the procedure. I always feel comfortable with the anesthesia docs too. The entire team is handpicked from heaven. I have full confidence that Dr Nelson will get the most possible clearance on my baby's vascular birthmark/port wine stain and keep my baby's skin in the healthiest condition possible. I just wish I had done more research and found him sooner.

This is a great resource for arts students…read more There are tons of reference books to check out for students doing research, and a large collection of audio and video recordings, and high-quality headphones to listen to them with. There is also a large collection of music scores for musicians to check out. But the best of all, I think, is the fact that there is a computer lab where arts students have (limited) free printing privileges. The last time I checked, you could get 10 sheets of paper from the front desk assistant to print anything on. The printer does break down at times though, since it gets used a LOT. From their website: Established in the summer of 1992, the Arts Media Center comprises the central music reference and technology resource in UCI's Claire Trevor School of the Arts. Come visit our brightly lit, air conditioned facility equipped with CD, phonograph, VHS, DVD, DAT, laserdisc, six-station mac lab, a Dance/AV Room and quiet study and listening areas. The AMC houses a growing collection of classical, jazz, popular, and world music audio and video recordings. We have over 5,000 CDs, 200 DVDs, 7,000 LPs, scores, videos, laserdiscs, CD-ROMs, scanner, photocopier/laser printer (B&W), and six music workstations with MIDI keyboards and Avid M-Boxes with Protools LE. Our computers can be used for music composition, music notation, musicianship, basic graphics, video editing, networking, writing, and various interactive technologies. I think that sums it up quite nicely.
