Cornell University is world-renowned for its excellence in teaching and research. Human Ecology students expect and desire no less from Human Ecology. Excellence, however, comes at a price. Consistent support is vital to the quality of Human Ecology. To maintain Human Ecology's strength and build on more than 100 years of success, Human Ecology has established key priorities and funding objectives. The College's focus includes improving the Human Ecology undergraduate experience, strengthening its masters and doctorate programs, and contributing to faculty excellence. Your support can help stabilize tuition costs and address funding shortfalls. Cornell Fund for Human Ecology Unrestricted Annual Support will always be a priority for Human Ecology. Gifts at any level are appreciated. These funds are used at the discretion of the Dean. Please remember to check the Human Ecology box on the University's pledge card.
Fund for Faculty Excellence (FFE) This endowment fund, started in 2000, is designed to provide the dean discretionary funds for support, retention, and recruitment of faculty. This fund has already been pivotal in our efforts to recruit new faculty and to retain outstanding faculty. Our goal is to build a $5 million dollar endowment over the next several years. Any amount can be contributed.
Human Ecology Fellowships
Faculty Research The College needs the capacity to jump-start, seed, and nurture selected research areas. One area that warrants expansion is the international/global studies of employment relations; another is conflict, negotiation, and dispute resolution, which is at the very heart of the College of Human Ecology's mission. Any amount can be contributed.
Student Research We have established a Research Fellows Program for undergraduates who are conducting research with a faculty member. The students receive semester awards with a small stipend ($1,000) and are subject to a competitive review process. Our goal is to create an endowment for this program and increase the number of undergraduate fellowships to 12.
