History
Regents of the University of California San Diego campus was originally authorized in 1956, the sciences, mathematics and engineering education, which was planned as a license and research institutions. Local residents near the coast Scripps Institution of Oceanography pre-existing university mesa land 59 acres (24 hectares) to transfer the same year voting, supported the idea. Regents of the northeast at the former site of the federal government from Camp Matthews Scripps undeveloped mesa land of 550 acres (220 ha), as well as 500 acres (200 ha) requested an additional gift, but Scripps then director Roger Revelle, the major proponent to establish institutions and new campuses, racial minorities and it was hostile to religious groups in the community of La Jolla's outstanding real estate business practices, compromised by exposing the choice of site.

Herbert York, the first director of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, has been appointed instead.york Revell based on many ideas, the "Oxbridge" main campus is planned according to the model.
UC San Diego campus for the first general emphasis on research from the University of California "top-down" was not designed. Local leaders must be a technical research institute or school, new school, as well as more broad-based, including undergraduate students on the same idea. City Council granted by the UC Regents in 1956 when free land offer for latter.th original authorization for the San Diego campus of General Dynamics Corporation John Jay Hopkins' graduate programs in science and technology, "one approved gave a million dollars at stake for old this greenhouse effect first he wrote won the license programs that are a compromise and General Dynamics support and urban voters approval.nobel laureate Harold Urey, the University of Chicago physicist Hans Suess including Revell previous year, the schools opened in 1960 in twenty faculty was appointed as professor of physics at 1960.Th graduate section 1958.Mari the early teaching soldiers Goeppert-Mayer, after the second woman Nobel physics laureate was the matter, physics, biology, chemistry, and geology of the area with the instructions provided. Before he completed the main campus building is made of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in classes.
1963 mesa new facility was finished for Science and Engineering School and the new buildings were under construction Social Sciences and Humanities. hired additional faculty in these disciplines and then the new campus on the entire site was changed after Roger Revelle, he was appointed First College. York resigned in that year the chancellor and 1964.Second College Revelle College in 181 first-year students on land deeded by its first-class federal government, was founded in 1964 and was replaced by accepting John Semple galbraith.th degree programs and environmentalists name of Medicine John Muir two years later.th School also accepted its first students in 1966.
Political theorist Herbert Marcuse New Left came to 1965 champion school, then a demonstration of the administration building, organized by the students reportedly occupied the first protestor, political activist Angela davis.th of American Legion rest of Marcuse's contract to offer $ 20,000 to buy out; On the basis of Regents academic freedom for defending Marcuse Prime Minister McGill censured, but participation increased local leaders in the Vietnam War throughout the United States, then expressed marcuse.furth students felt the support of university unrest in the early 1960s by another process prevented the war continued 1970. 200 students more than the National Guard and a student Urey Hall, Kent State University students occupied campus.protests only exacerbated as a student on an upgraded set himself on fire in protest of the war raised the flag of the Viet Minh after the fire on protesters.
research activities and teaching quality, early, especially in science, shaping the university was an integral focus and culture. UC San Diego, even before we had our own campus, faculty recruits already land quickly raise carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere and the Keeling Curve as it was the first major evidence for global climate change, significant research breakthroughs had done graphically; Kohn-Sham equations of quantum chemistry are used in particular to study atoms and molecules; he matures and prebiotic chemistry.engineering, especially in the field of computer science gave birth Miller-Urey experiment, it has become an important part of the university academic. University researchers 1980s. economic methods to the late 1970s, UCSD Pascal, then heavy Java, the National Science Foundation Network, the Internet is a pioneer affect an early programming language independent from the machine and Network News Transfer Protocol development to help time-varying volatility (ARCH) and common trends (cointegration) has been developed in conjunction with the analysis of economic time series. UC San Diego's history to receive the Nobel Prize 20 connected in 50 years, after the establishment retains its intense character study; a rate four decades.
1980 1995 Richard C. Atkinson leadership as chancellor, university technology-based industries in San Diego transformation into a world leader, by promoting technology transfer in developing the company has strengthened its ties with the city of San Diego. That computer science, electrical engineering, construction establishment Centerand San Diego Supercomputer then Qualcomm founder Irwin M. Jacobs was later renamed Faculty of rapid expansion, supervision and bioengineering departments.privat the donations rose to $ 15 million of approximately $ 50 million dollars annually faculty expand by approximately 50% and approximately 18,000 students doubled during the recording management.

In addition to the academic and housing facilities, campus eucalyptus trees, Birch Aquarium and museums, and there are several large research centers. Scripps Institution of a sea port and used for earthquake simulations Large High Performance various open ocean ships to sea research.several great shakes facilities, including the world record holding Outdoor Shake Table, the owner, is also held by the university.
University actively Sustainability Monitoring and Evaluation and Assessment System (STARS), a survey "gold" sustainability performance evaluation of earnings, is striving to reduce carbon emissions and energy use on campus. He also praised the Princeton Review's Guide to 322 Green Colleges: sustainability, academic offerings, campus infrastructure, activities and career preparation with a strong commitment to the 2013 version.
Academic facilities
Campus when it opened in 1964, consisted only in Revelle College and Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The first ten years of the undergraduate student enrollment and opening of the rapid growth of the school led to the large campus expansion.

Geisel Library shift towards core campus construction in the following year, although initially this deviation, campus, followed by a rough north-south axis on Historic Route 101.
division expanded in 1982 into a single School of Engineering of the school since joining the two engineering departments, new buildings were added continuously. Major additions include: the San Diego Supercomputer Center, completed in 1986; The Powell-Focht Bioengineering Hall completed in 2003; and the undeveloped northern part of campus before construction work completed 2012.Significant Structural and Materials Engineering Building, also took place during this period. Two graduate professional schools, Global Policy and Strategy and Management Rady School, neighbors and Super Center was built in the area near Besides Roosevelt College, a transfer student apartment complex at Torrey Pines called the village and RIMAC sports facilities. In addition, Conrad Prebys Music Center experimental music program at UC San Diego is famous for its music division, as part of the expanding arts district home was completed in 2009
