Our Funds

Gifts to political science are used for undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, and for engagement activities like seminars, lectures, and community outreach. A gift may support an existing scholarship or fund, or it may create a new fund for current needs or an endowment to support programs into the future. Gifts may be made in honor of a faculty member or friend.

For questions about giving to the Department or establishing a new fund, please contact a CLAS development officer.
