Faculty Endowments
UTMB is home to some 900 faculty members - leaders in their respective fields. Faculty endowments represent one of the key priorities for UTMB's $50 million Innovations in Mind fundraising initiative.
Appointment to an endowed chair or a named professorship is intended to be the university’s most prestigious recognition for continuing scholarly achievement and distinction.
