Student Research at the Cutting Edge

Cutting-edge scientific research and technology development, led collaboratively between faculty and students, is a hallmark of Western Washington University's STEM programs. Students at Western lead research projects, publish in prestigious journals, and present their research by giving talks at national and international conferences. Your gift to the Student Research Fund enables us to increase the impact of grant- and foundation-funded research involving students by supporting student conference travel, student research awards, and student-led research project costs.

Dean's Fund

Gifts to the Dean’s fund enable us to respond to emergent needs and opportunities in support of students and faculty across the College of Science and Engineering. Examples include real-time support of student- and faculty-led initiatives, matching funds to enable acquisition of advanced research equipment, and seed grant money to enable the development of new academic programs and community partnerships.

Why Give to CSE?

Our mission is to serve the science and engineering needs of Washington State and the global community by advancing scholarship and educating thoughtful leaders & problem solvers. WWU has a national reputation for high-quality, hands-on research and learning opportunities for its students. CSE programs emphasize independent student scholarship and the development of creative & innovative thinking. Graduates are prepared for a wide variety of professional opportunities in each of the disciplinary areas, and are ideally prepared for pre-professional programs that require scientific & technical backgrounds. Thank you for partnering with us in creating opportunities for our stellar students!
