Hall of Fame
Informatics alumni have gone on to distinguished careers. They now work at top companies and universities, civic agencies, thinktanks, and non-profit organizations, helping shape policy, studying the impact of technology, creating innovative and equitable solutions across all kinds of domains, and educating the next generation.
To celebrate their outstanding accomplishments, ICS annually recognizes a small number of exceptional alumni by inducting them in the ICS Hall of Fame, where Informatics alumni are well represented! Visit the Hall of Fame to see for yourself, and if you know someone deserving of this honor, contact our Associate Director of External Relations, Kristin Huerth, at khuerth@ics.uci.edu or (949) 824-3074, to submit a nomination.
Call for Nominations
We invite you to nominate exceptional ICS alumni who have made a significant impact in their profession or, in other ways, have brought distinction to ICS. The deadline for submission is Dec. 31, 2020.
