Alumni and Donors

The Faculty of Science has a long history of building strong partnerships with our friends, alumni, donors and all levels of government, business and industry. When you give to the Faculty of Science, you join a community of thousands of dedicated people who value the need to keep U of A at the international forefront of teaching and research. Your assistance positions us to offer our students the highest quality education in Canada, and to promote the innovative research for which our scholars and scientists are internationally renowned. 

Your support helps us make a difference.  It enables us to create new scholarships, develop relevant programs of study and build state-of-the-art educational and research facilities.  All of these measures empower students to realize their aspirations and become informed citizens who participate responsibly in a global society.  It paves the way for our researchers to undertake the intense inquiry into the sciences that influences how we understand our world and opens up new avenues of discovery.
