Give for Students
Gifted students in the liberal arts and sciences require increased financial assistance to realize their educational dreams and career goals. By offering that support, the University of Missouri gains multitalented students who enrich the College of Arts and Science legacy of achievement and success.
To draw from the top student pool at a time when all universities vie for the best and brightest, the college requires enhancement initiatives. We include our students in the important work of research to benefit society. Undergraduate and graduate students work as partners with professor-researchers investigating subjects that range from environmental issues and carcinogens to communication techniques and literature.
The comprehensive campaign will provide the College of Arts and Science with additional scholarship and fellowship resources. To enhance the academic experience of our students, we will increase support for research, for internships, for travel to competitions and professional conferences, and for awards that encourage creativity and reward excellence.
