Research in Action
UC Davis is a powerhouse, public research university and faculty at the Graduate School of Management play an integral role in advancing this important research that affects us all.
Faculty Endowments
Obtaining an endowed faculty position is one of the highest honors a faculty member in higher education can receive. Since the endowed funds are invested and maintained in perpetuity, they provide a permanent source of funding for the faculty member to use to support their teaching and research mission.
Donors who make contributions to support faculty positions often do so because of the ripple effect that person can have through the nature of their work, both in educating students and advancing research in their field.
