Make a Gift to the CICS Dean’s Opportunity Fund
This year, any gift made to the Dean’s Opportunity Fund will help us reach our goal of 125 individual donors to unlock a matching gift of $10,000 from a longstanding supporter of the college.
Your contribution will enable our talented students to focus on their coursework, research, and career goals.
Your 2022 UMassGives gift supports:
- Scholarship assistance for talented undergraduate and graduate students.
- Experiential learning and inclusion activities, including participation in hackathons and conferences (e.g., Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing).
- Students in obtaining the technology needed to conduct their studies.
- New programs designed to support student well-being.
Together, we can impact the lives of computer science and informatics students at UMass Amherst! Please join us in supporting UMassGives 2022 with a donation of any amount.
The Manning College of Information and Computer Sciences is deeply grateful for your generosity. Thank you!
