It is through the support and generosity of alumni and friends we offer to our Economics students graduate and undergraduate fellowships, scholarships and awards. Through the Department of Economics Gift Fund, we allocate funds for our greatest needs. These efforts include supporting our graduate students and faculty by sponsoring seminars and graduate workshops and supporting graduate student travel to participate in and present at conferences.
A few of our giving opportunities include:
-
The Department of Economics Gift Fund, which supports the operation and advancement of the department
-
The Dudley and Louisa Dillard Professorship in Economics Fund, which provides annual support for a professor in the Department of Economics.
-
The Neil Moskowitz Professorship Fund, which provides support for a professorship in economics.
-
The Peggy Rae and John Sapienza Scholarship Fund, which provides a scholarship to a deserving junior or senior economics undergraduate student within the Department of Economics.
