Your gift to the Faculty of Engineering gives us the freedom to respond to the priorities of our students and staff – and secures the future of engineering education at Imperial.
Flexible funding is vital. The needs of our students and researchers change from year to year. That’s why the support we receive for the Dean’s Fund from alumni like you is so important. It allows us to respond quickly to emerging priorities – and to extend a helping hand when it’s urgently needed.
These funds allow the Dean or Head of Department to say 'yes' in an environment of shrinking government support and flat research funding. Your support is making an impact across the Faculty of Engineering; funding scholarships, supporting students, providing cutting-edge facilities and propelling research which is pursuing the answers to tackle today’s global challenges.
Your impact in action
The Dean’s Fund came at a time when I was suffering a lot of hardship, I was drained financially and emotionally and this was affecting my academic and social life. The Dean’s fund was pivotal to keeping my head afloat during this period. You have been generous to me out of the kindness of your hearts, and I am grateful.
