Give to Rice Materials Science and NanoEngineering
The Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering (MSNE) in the George R. Brown School of Engineering at Rice is dedicated to expanding the boundaries of knowledge in materials and producing the materials scientists and engineers of the future. We create, innovate, discover and develop the materials to enable the technologies that improve lives and solve the world’s most pressing problems. Join us in engineering excellence by pushing the boundaries in advanced materials.
Every gift, no matter small or large, makes an impact
Whether you choose to give back through an annual gift, establishing an endowment or or supporting a department funding priority, every dollar counts. In fact, most gifts to Rice Engineering are less than $1,000 but together they add up to millions for student awards, academics, research and programs so we can educate leaders and tackle grand challenges. If you are interested in discussing how you can make a non-cash gift such as appreciated stock, Donor Advised Fund (DAF), IRA Charitable Rollover, or through a deferred gift vehicle such as a bequest, please contact engdev@rice.edu and we would love to help facilitate that donation.
About the Materials Science and NanoEngineering Department Excellence Fund
