Chairs and Professorships

Endowed Chairs and Professorships: $7.5 million

Our success and reputation depend on our ability to attract and retain quality faculty. Through additional endowed Chairs and Professorships, we can increase our competitive edge.

These endowments enable us to offer competitive salaries, research dollars and additional paid teaching time for professors.

Our students benefit from these gifts because they are given the opportunity to learn from industry leaders and are mentored by faculty who are motivated not only to serve as teachers but to excel as role models.

Our goal is to gain five additional chairs at $1 million dollars each, two distinguished professorships at $500,000 each, and five professorships at $250,000 each.
