All-University of California Group in Economic History

Excellence through Cooperation:  Ten Campuses One University

The All-UC Group in Economic History

History:  The All-UC Group in Economic History was founded in 1972 to energize faculty and graduate students from all campuses of the University of California.  In the last 37 years it has organized an extensive series of research initiatives, conferences, seminar, and graduate student retreats that have made the University of California the world’s leading center for the study of economic history.

Funding:  The Office of the President provides permanent funding for the Group's base budget. But the Group's wide-ranging activities have been made possible by additional support from internal and extramural sources, listed under “Donors and Co-Sponsors.”

Membership:  The group welcomes as participants faculty and graduate students at any of the UC campuses with an interest in issues relating to economic history.  If you would like inclusion on our mailing list please just send your details to Kathy Miner.
