McCord Hall
We have operated efficiently and beyond our physical means for many years, coping with significant space constraints while delivering outstanding business programs. McCord Hall will represent the caliber of programs, research and learning demanded by our stakeholders. We invite you to join us in building the future of business. Dean's Investment Fund
Dean Robert E. Mittelstaedt, Jr. has a focused vision for the W. P. Carey School: to become a world-class school of business. This fund provides unrestricted funds for the dean to accomplish the school's highest priorities, among them new curriculum initiatives such as programs in real estate and innovation and entrepreneurship, faculty recruitment and retention, and international recognition as a top-tier business school. Flexible resources such as the Dean's Investment Fund are crucial to enabling opportunistic investments in respected and highly sought-after scholars who will add depth to our core academic programs. A minimum $200,000 contribution is requested.
W. P. Carey School of Business Academic Enrichment Fund
This fund is associated with our annual giving campaign and is the most flexible vehicle for alumni to invest at various levels annually. It provides unrestricted funding to enable the dean to expend capital as needed to react to current needs related to hiring and recruiting of faculty, development new academic programs, classroom technology enhancements, scholarship and fellowship support, and student enrichment activities including case competitions and business executive engagements.
Faculty Chairs
Investments in faculty chairs are used to attract and retain superior faculty, as well as recognize achievements of excellent faculty over a lifetime of scholarly endeavor. Named chairs are provided only to full professors and signify the highest faculty distinction. Our goal is to significantly increase the number of chairs in each academic unit, enabling recruitment and retention of world-class faculty, continued knowledge creation at the highest possible level, and strengthening the economic well-being of Arizona. Named chairs require a minimum $2 million endowment.
Faculty Professorships
Investments in named professorships are used in a manner similar to faculty chairs, but are typically provided to scholars at an earlier point in their academic careers. Professorships recognize high achievement to date and great promise for future scholarly impact and productivity. Like named chairs, named professorships are important in attracting and retaining highly gifted, emerging young scholars; these individuals will in turn instruct, challenge and inspire future business leaders. Named professorships require a minimum $1,000,000 endowment.
Scholarships / Fellowships
An investment in our undergraduate scholarships or graduate fellowships provide critical support for outstanding business students. These funds help us attract and retain the top students for the W. P. Carey School of Business. With increasing tuition costs, scholarships and fellowships are imperative to help our students afford a high-quality education.
For additional information about scholarships and fellowships, please call Ashleigh Leite at (480) 965-5461.
Academic Departments
Each academic department has a unique growth strategy and specific investment needs. Should you wish to make a gift to an individual department or explore the funding needs of a particular department, please contact Erin Varga, Director of Development at 480-965-8846; Erin.Varga@asu.edu.
Research Centers
Based on the vision of former Dean L. William Seidman, the Seidman Research Institute today serves as an essential link between the local, national and international business communities and the intellectual and creative resources of Arizona State University's nationally ranked school of business. From collecting and disseminating essential information about local economies to benchmarking industry practices to identifying emerging business research issues, the Seidman Research Institute's member centers have gained the recognition and respect of business practitioners and academics the world over.
