A Clark School Giving Priority

In Brief
In 2007-2008-its second year of operation-the Fischell Department of Bioengineering will claim the largest group of incoming freshmen of any Clark School department. We are grateful to Robert Fischell and his family for their generous gifts, which have established the financial basis for the new department and the Robert E. Fischell Institute for Biomedical Devices, and built a bioengineering addition to the Jeong H. Kim Engineering Building. However, we need a complete, state-of-the-art facility to realize the department's full potential for growth, for discovering new advances in medicine and healthcare, and for burnishing the Clark School's reputation.

Impact
A new building for the Fischell Department of Bioengineering and Robert E. Fischell Institute for Biomedical Devices will enable us to offer the proper environment for our research and education initiatives, now and in the future, and to bring together leaders from throughout the Clark School, the College Park campus, the Baltimore medical campus and the world.

Giving Opportunities
Your gift towards the construction of a new building for bioengineering can be directed in the following ways:

  • Building naming gift (one half cost of the building)
  • Gifts to name offices, laboratories, and other spaces in the building, with the amount of the gift prorated to fit the size of the space named
  • Support of equipment funds
  • Create an endowed fund to support building operations
  • Contribute towards state-of-the-art communications technology

How to Participate
We encourage you to learn more about the proposed building by visiting the Kim Engineering Building (an example of the kind of building needed) and talking with Clark School development officers.

Please contact Stu Stabley, 301-405-8289 or support-clarkschool@umd.edu, for more information.
