Today in the College of Business and Economics
Campaign for Delaware:
Positioning the College for the Future
Creating Opportunities for Growth
Times of great change are often times of great opportunity. New technologies, globalization, and innovation mandate new competitive strategies for corporate success in the new millennium. The College of Business and Economics at the University of Delaware has a unique, front-row view of the changes and opportunities sweeping American businesses and markets.
With more than 330,000 companies—including some 60 percent of the Fortune 500—incorporated in the State of Delaware, our location in the heart of the nation’s corporate capital affords us unparalleled opportunities for study, research, and collaboration. We reap the full benefit of these opportunities and strive to be responsive to the needs of both our students and the business community. We are therefore able to provide broad opportunities for students, quality employees for businesses, pertinent research, technical assistance, and executive education.
The Campaign for Delaware will help us build on our existing strengths and meet the challenges of the future in the following concrete ways:
- by providing scholarships and fellowships for talented students,
- by rewarding and supporting outstanding faculty,
- by promoting discovery-based learning opportunities for students,
- by sustaining advancements in educational technologies, and
- by supporting innovative education, research, and outreach initiatives.
