1907 - The University is officially incorporated, choosing for its location a varietal grape vineyard in the young San Bernardino County town of Redlands. The University honors the original and continued Native caretakers of the Redlands area, the Yuhaviatam (Serrano) and Cahuilla, and today U of R programming and activities .
Redlands emphasizes academic rigor, curricular diversity and innovative teaching. Redlands fosters a community of scholars and encourages a pluralistic notion of values by challenging assumptions and stereotypes in both classes and activities. A Redlands education goes beyond training to embrace a reflective understanding of our world; it proceeds from information to insight, from knowledge to meaning.
Institutional Research is applied research of higher education institutions that supports both internal decision making and external inquiries.

IR aggregates data and information from multiple sources to create a whole picture, reduces information noises and redundancy, analyzes relevant data to help reduce uncertainties in decision making, and translates insights from technical jargons to user-friendly messages that everyone can understand and share.

Instructional Technology is focused on the teaching and learning side of IT. This group works with faculty to enrich courses through the appropriate use of technology and pedagogical techniques.
