Student Success
Supporting students on their educational journeys will be our top priority throughout Campaign Montana. Thanks to your generosity, we have already created the Larry and Dee Dee Gianchetta Student Success Center, a one-stop shop for advising, internship placement support, scholarship information, graduate programs and career development. Now, we seek additional funds to elevate these vital programs and the people who make them possible.
Faculty
Recruiting and retaining executives is crucial to all successful businesses. It’s no different at the College of Business. We compete with elite universities for top talent. To recruit successfully, we must offer competitive packages. The prestige and opportunity that comes with a named professorship helps us do so. With your support, we aim to endow chairs, professorships and faculty fellowships in all of our academic disciplines.
Technology and Program Innovation
Since its grand opening in 1996, the Gallagher Building has been home to some of UM’s most exciting and innovative thinkers. With donor support, over the next two years we will overhaul the building’s technology to reflect the way students learn and access information. We will also continue to provide innovative programs in marketing analytics and big data.
Impact Fund
Impact Funds across campus helps ensure UM’s excellence by providing unrestricted support where and when it is needed most. With your gift, the College of Business can provide essential opportunities and resources students and faculty need to thrive.
Montana was built by early innovators, adventurers and pioneers. Today, a new generation of entrepreneurs and future business leaders stand ready to blaze their own trails. You will be a key partner in charting their course. With your generous support during Campaign Montana, we will deepen our talent pool by supporting faculty in leadership positions and recognize high-achieving students with scholarships, graduate fellowships and internships. We will invest in programs that set us apart and each student has the tools they need to succeed at UM and in their careers.
