To provide the resources necessary for the School of Finance & Operations Management to achieve their goal of national prominence, Friends of Finance has established a Finance Excellence Fund. The objectives of the fund are:
- Establish scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students to attract the best students in the nation. Named scholarships can be established.
- Obtain the necessary computers, financial databases, online financial data, and current information technology that will provide TU students with an exceptional educational experience and prepare them for successful careers in finance.
- Create a stimulating teaching and research environment that will attract and retain faculty who will be superior classroom teachers, and who will conduct outstanding research. Teaching and research grants will be provided to faculty to develop innovative teaching materials and to conduct groundbreaking research.
- Achieve national academic recognition by acquiring endowment funds to support named professorships, distinguished chairs, and endowed chairs.
Several programs have been established to allow you to support our mission and contribute to the Finance Excellence Fund.
