The key to the College's future lies in its students and faculty.

Thank you for considering how you can make a lasting impact on the College of Architecture. Endowments are forever, providing a perpetual stream of income managed to maintain buying power for all time. Endowments transcend bricks and mortar, and provide the Institute with the financial foundation upon which it is built—its faculty, its student body, its facilities, and its programs—enhancing quality and access for current and future generations. Endowments restricted to the College of Architecture, but unrestricted in use therein, provide maximum flexibility in meeting pressing needs and seed funding for new initiatives. Recognition of unrestricted endowments within the College may take the form of a named endowment fund or a named facility or feature.

Faculty Support
The cornerstone of a great program is a great faculty. Teacher-scholars are the backbone of the College of Architecture—men and women eminent in their chosen fields, capable of developing new knowledge through research and transmitting knowledge through teaching. To maintain and enhance the quality of its academic programs, therefore, the College is seeking permanent endowments in the following areas:

• Dean’s Chair
• School Chairs
• Faculty Chairs
• Professor of Practice
• Faculty Professorships
• Early Career Faculty Fellowships + Professorships
• Visiting Professorships
• Faculty Development Grants

Student Support
The key to Georgia Tech’s future lies in its students, and the amount of support awarded to these talented young people can be directly tied to their success—and to the Institute’s—in the years to come. The College of Architecture has long served as a beacon to exceptionally bright and highly motivated students. The tradition continues unabated, and the College’s commitment to its students has never been more evident.

• Graduate Fellowships
• Named Fellowship
• Undergraduate Scholarships

Program Enrichment
In order for the College to remain a global leader in architecture, building construction, city and regional planning, industrial design, and music, the administration actively identifies and implements new programs and initiatives to enhance and promote the College’s curriculum, research, and outreach activities.

Facilities and Equipment
Several major facilities will be constructed/renovated utilizing private funds to enhance state appropriations and other source funding. The comprehensive renovation of the Hinman Building will expand the College of Architecture’s footprint by more than 40,000 square feet, offering a real solution to the severe overcrowding in design studios. Numerous commemorative gift opportunities are available, including naming of the buildings in their entirety as well as features therein.

Current Operations
Unlike endowment, current operating funds are available for use in the year in which they are received. Gifts and grants may be designated to the College of Architecture and may remain unrestricted in use therein. Such funds support core academic and programmatic goals, as well as provide seed funds for emerging initiatives. Restricted gifts and grants may support a variety of initiatives within the College including, but not limited to: faculty research, undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships, faculty support, and academic program enrichment.
