Southern Branch renamed in 1927 University Of California , Los Angeles . HISTORY Founded 1919 as the Southern Branch of the University Of California , name changed 1927 to the University Of California At Los Angeles . In terms of academic and scientific achievement, the University was not yet among the vanguard of the nation's great centers of learning; but it would rapidly achieve this status. Westward migration was swelling the population of California and the University was hard-pressed to grow quickly enough. Primarily because of rapid development of the "Southern Branch," Professor David Prescott Barrows of the Department Of Political Science , who succeeded President Wheeler , signaled his induction into office by presenting the University with its first red-ink budget--red ink to the extent of half a million dollars.
