Thank you, Chemistry alumni and donors!

Submitted by Diana Knight on

Our capacity for excellence in research and scholarship is a direct result of the collective efforts of friends and alumni coming together to support the department’s work.

In the past year, your gifts have made a tangible impact on:

  • Recruiting top graduate students: Your generous fellowship support attracts the brightest minds to our program.
  • Strengthening research programs: Endowed professorships expand professional development activities, provide salary support, and fund essential lab equipment.
  • Supporting undergraduate students: Your contributions fund awards, scholarships, and research stipends, improving the accessibility of education.
  • Enhancing community and education: Funding for lectures, community-building events, and student clubs enriches the culture and educational experience for students and postdocs.

With your help, we are educating the next generation of leading scientists, accelerating vital scientific discoveries, and creating a bold vision for the future of research and teaching in a new Chemical Sciences Building.

Donors can visit My UW Giving to track your giving history and see how your gifts have made an impact! Curious about the future of the chemical sciences at the University of Washington? Learn more at artsci.uw.edu/csb.
