The College of Science is a hub of invention and experimentation, where faculty and students transcend traditional academic disciplines. We are dedicated to providing a unique, experientially-driven scientific education that inspires the next generation of leaders, to creating new knowledge and technologies that transform our future, and to integrating intellectual discovery and use-inspired research to improve the human condition and the environment.

Through your philanthropic support, you will help promote the college’s strategic priorities:

Seeding Innovation. Our students and faculty are working to sustain coastal environments; extend the healthspan of aging populations; develop cures for neglected and microbial diseases; design new materials that can capture, transfer, and store energy; and revolutionize our understanding of brain health and behavior. We seek investments to enhance and expand our research capacity, labs, and instrumentation.

Building our Faculty. In health, security, and sustainability, we are assembling teams of faculty to attack complex problems by pooling our expertise. To recruit and retain world leaders in emerging frontiers, including nanomedicine and network science, we seek endowments for chairs and professorships.

Championing Undergraduate and Graduate Students. To compete at the highest levels for exceptional talent, we seek funding for scholarships and graduate fellowships. Undergraduate research co-ops, particularly on campus, at Boston’s renowned hospitals and institutes, and around the world, are also top priority.

Please join us in advancing real-world learning and use-inspired research—work that will improve, nurture, and sustain lives.

“Research is always a moving target, and outstanding research is always aspirational. You are never there—you’re always trying to make it even more rigorous, even more groundbreaking. That is a framework in which I look forward to partnering with colleagues in the College of Science. It’s wonderful to be able to work with a college that is in such a healthy state, with a terrific strategic plan and outstanding faculty and students, and then to build on that to even greater excellence.”
