In its first 20 years, the UCI has made an indelible impact on the coastal communities it serves, on campus, and has helped inspire the next generation of ocean leaders. The UCI has also grown in influence and capacity, and is well prepared to continue leveraging the expertise of Monmouth&#8217;s faculty and the passion of its students to work with other partners who share their love for the ocean and coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the report&#8217;s features are a timeline walking from the UCI&#8217;s earliest years to today, a comprehensive list of all of the student and faculty research projects funded through the Heidi Lynn Sculthorpe Scholars program, and a roster of all Champion of the Ocean honorees going back to 2005.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report is available in digital flipbook and PDF formats:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/online.fliphtml5.com\/roxfx\/ezwc\/#p=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">View digital flipbook version<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/uci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/58\/2025\/09\/MU_UCI_20YAnniversary_7.5x10.5_FINAL_LR.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">View PDF version<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Hard copies of the report are also available upon request.
