Alumni often ask about various ways to
financially support the department’s mission and priorities. Here are the
two primary strategies:
1) Make a gift of any amount to the
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Fund through the University of Wisconsin Foundation.
These discretionary funds make a variety of
initiatives possible. Examples include undergraduate welcome-to-ECE lab
kits, graduate student and faculty recruiting, and a wide variety of student
events that enhance their overall experience.
2) Support a specific larger-scale initiative such as
creating a new state-of-the-art instructional lab or capstone design space,
supporting faculty through named professorships, enhancing access through
undergraduate scholarships, and recruiting top graduate students with
prestigious fellowships. The wide-range of options for major gifts can be
discussed with one of our Directors of Development.
