Alumni and Friends Department Support Fund
The department is aiming to launch into the future with the help of generous donations. These gifts are unrestricted, which means they provide the department with flexibility to support current priorities and respond to emerging opportunities that other funds do not cover. Every donation, regardless of the amount, is significant and greatly appreciated.

By supporting the education of our next generation of engineers, your contribution is certain to help change many lives for the better.
