Giving to Briggs

Your generous giving plays a vital role in supporting Lyman Briggs College as a national model for undergraduate residential learning communities that interconnects Science, Mathematics and the History, Philosophy and Sociology of Science (HPS). 
Our mission is to prepare students to excel in a complex, rapidly changing society driven by technology and interdisciplinary collaboration. Our newly regained college status has made this a time of both challenge and opportunity.
Standing on our own as a college we need to secure the resources that will allow us to maintain excellence and innovation in instructional/research facilities, academic program and student scholarship support.  Our ability to develop financial resources is a critical source of our future success.
Please stand with us by making a generous contribution to these major areas of need as established by the College.
