Donate to the Economics Department

Please consider making a donation to support the Department of Economics. Your contribution helps us continue our tradition of excellence in education, research, and outreach by providing resources for our students and faculty. The University of Colorado is a public institution that receives little support from the state of Colorado. Therefore, like private universities that seek donations, CU seeks private support to provide scholarships, graduate fellowships, faculty support and other initiatives throughout the institution. For our students to remain competitive in the marketplace, and in order to attract and retain outstanding faculty, we rely on support from people like you. 

The department is very grateful for the contributions of time and money by our graduates and friends. Gifts of any size are greatly appreciated. Thank you for supporting CU!
