Giving to USU Geology
Our Goal
Our department provides many small scholarships as well as critical healthcare and tuition support to our students every year--all possible through charitable giving. We aspire to build select endowments to meet rising healthcare and tuition costs and also to provide significant fellowships to attract underrepresented, first-generation, and high-achieving students.
Make a Gift, Make a Difference
The Summit Initiative is a three year effort to significantly increase the total value of the department’s endowment, specifically to improve student access, fund student enrichment, and develop resources for faculty teaching and research.
Student Access Goal
Encourage and attract greater achievement and diversity in our graduate programs by providing fellowships
Student Enrichment Goal
Enable our existing student scholarships to meet the rising costs of tuition, health insurance, and research experiences
Teaching and Research Goal
Provide faculty with resources for the evolution of our teaching and research, to train students using the latest tools and approaches
