Giving Opportunities

As one of the nation’s top-ranked Engineering programs, the Cockrell School of Engineering upholds a standard of excellence of which alumni, parents and friends can be proud.  Charitable gifts and private support enhance quality and build on this standard.

Every gift matters, whether large or small.  Your gift, in the form and for the purpose you choose, will play a crucial role in the progress and continuing success of the Cockrell School of Engineering.  Whether you are providing immediate funds to support operational needs or creating an endowment to provide ongoing support, there is a gift option to suit you.

Invest in the Future: Create an Endowment

Funding an endowment is one of the most far-reaching acts of philanthropy because an endowed fund provides support in perpetuity to the Cockrell School.  An endowment is a permanent tribute to the person whose name it bears, and a sound investment in the future.  Moreover, by selecting the title of your endowment, you can forever link your name, or that of a family member, friend, respected professor, or organization, to scholarly excellence.

The impact of outright giving is immediate and powerful.  With state tax dollars providing less than 20% of the Cockrell School's annual expenditures, private support is more critical than ever. Gifts from loyal alumni, parents and friends allow the Cockrell School to support innovative programs, urgent priorities and other unforeseen opportunities that arise during the academic year.
