  • Planned charitable giving
    Donors may name the School of Management as beneficiary of a gift in trust or provide support through charitable bequests of financial or other assets in their wills.
  • Endowments

    Endowments provide support in perpetuity for scholarships, programs, research centers or professorships. These benefactor-named giving opportunities will benefit a variety of school projects, from student scholarships to faculty support.
