Giving Opportunities
Your gifts to the Brandeis National Committee support several important initiatives.
Engineering the Future: The BNC Professorship in Engineering Science
Engineering education, Brandeis style. BNC's new multi-year campaign will raise money for the Brandeis National Committee Professorship in Engineering Sciences, a new interdepartmental degree program that will provide students with the essential skills to think like engineers, and design solutions to complex problems.
Engineering students at Brandeis have already begun making the world a better place. In their inaugural course, they designed innovative solutions like robotic prosthetic limbs and accessible silverware for individuals with tremors. With your support, we envision a future where our engineering program continues to cultivate conscientious and skilled engineers who will tackle the challenges of tomorrow.
"I’m a retired engineer with a very traditional education: a BEE in electrical engineering and an MS in engineering management. The Brandeis Engineering Science program is different. It’s interdisciplinary. It’s inclusive. That's why my wife, Judy, and I are supporting the BNC Professorship in Engineering Science. When BNC meets its $3 million goal, Brandeis will be able to hire a top professor to join the engineering science faculty in a secure, tenured position. " -- Leith Balletin, BNC Phoenix Chapter
