Alumni Award for Graduate Excellence

We enjoy generous support from our alumni, and we encourage you to join in that cause.   Every dollar donated goes toward making the Department better in some way.  In particular, competition for graduate students has really changed over the last ten years.  In order to attract the best graduate students, it has become mandatory at most major universities to supplement the university stipend with a departmental source.   Much of what we receive from our alumni goes for that  purpose.The Alumni Award for Graduate Excellence is a primary source for these stipends.  Currently, until the end of 2020, a generous graduate has offered to match up to $30,000 any gift made to Alumni Award for Graduate Excellence in Statistics,  Give now to double your impact!   Also, don't forget to check if your employer offer a matching program?  Please join us today in fully funding this award.

To learn more about how to support our Department financially, please look at our MAKE A GIFT page, or contact Dr. William Rayens, Chair.   And THANK YOU on behalf of all our graduate students and faculty colleagues.
