Endowment

Endowment gifts are greatly valued by the USC Viterbi School of Engineering. Endowments are vital because they are a permanent source of income that will continue to grow over time. Endowed funds are strategically invested and USC Viterbi receives a portion of the gains every year.

Endowed gifts

• May be named for an individual, a family, or for someone the donor wishes to honor.
• Provide permanent and everlasting support for USC Viterbi.
• Secure your legacy at USC forever.

Endowment options include Chairs and Professorships. A named chair or professorship recognizes scholarly excellence and is the highest honor the School can bestow upon its faculty.
