Excellence in Graduate Education Fund

Graduate education at UW established a firm foundation for lifelong scholarship, intellectual creativity, and career success. The Graduate School is dedicated to ensuring that every graduate student has the opportunity to maximize his or her intellectual potential and attain skills for long-term achievement.

We are proud of the achievements of our graduate faculty and students. Their continuing accomplishments ensure that new students will have state-of-the-art training and disciplinary expertise that is rigorous and relevant.

Many of these accomplishments were made possible or were enhanced by private support from alumni and friends who have given generously to DISTINCTION: The Campaign for Wyoming’s University. The Excellence in Graduate Education Fund is designed to support graduate students in a variety of ways at the discretion of the sponsor. For example, resources can be directed specifically to support:

“Named” fellowships to specific programs on an endowed or non-endowed basis.
Student participation in professional meetings, summer research experiences and international travel.
Award programs to acknowledge and encourage continuing faculty and student excellence and achievement in graduate education.
University-wide efforts to recruit the best and brightest students.
Bolster innovative, interdisciplinary graduate programs, encourage the best research and teaching practices, provide support for the Distinguished Speakers series, forums and workshops.

Please consider participating in this year’s Annual Fund by making a financial commitment to specifically support the Excellence in Graduate Education Fund. All gifts will make a difference and are extremely appreciated. I assure you that gifts will be conscientiously utilized to expand the graduate education enterprise at the University of Wyoming.
