Giving
No one can predict what yet-to-be-created material will change the way the world works. But one fact is clear: materials science and engineering will guide the way, and the road to the future requires investment in people. UW Materials Science and Engineering remains at the front edge of this innovation, with multidisciplinary teams of scientists and students fusing mind power with high-tech instruments to produce the next breakthrough advances.
But we need your help to secure our future as one of the nation's best programs, as a powerful force for pursuing technological progress, benefiting people's lives, and contributing to the growth of our regional and national economies.
Competition for outstanding faculty among the nationŐs other top programs is fierce—both those with significant grant support and track records and rising young stars. Competition for top students is also key, and top-ranked programs engage in bidding wars for the best graduate students. The most promising graduate students are drawn to schools with nationally recognized faculty and exciting research opportunities, and faculty are eager to join institutions with brilliant students who can help drive research forward.
Every year UW Materials Science and Engineering competes with Stanford, Cal Tech, Michigan, and other highly regarded programs. You can play an important role in the effort to attract and retain the most outstanding faculty, to compete for the best graduate students, and to ensure state-of-the-art laboratories—as well as to support innovators who will improve our lives in innumerable ways.
Now it is time to invest in our faculty and students. Funding for endowed professorships, chairs, scholarships, and fellowships is essential to our future success, and makes a direct impact o the educational experience of every student.
The College of Engineering can work with you to tailor a giving program to your wishes. Contact us to find out how you can make a difference.
