Giving Opportunities

MMET Development Fund

Monetary gifts help students by attracting world-class faculty with extensive industrial experience, supporting faculty and student projects, maintaining advanced facilities and equipment for the Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering Technology programs and its Machine Shop, and funding opportunities for real-world application and experience. All of these elements are necessary to provide tomorrow’s engineers with the skillset needed to contribute on the job from day one.
