Victors for Michigan Campaign Progress
As part of the University of Michigan’s Victors for Michigan $4 billion campaign, the College of Pharmacy is seeking $20 million by the campaign’s end in 2018. To date, nearly $8 million has been committed toward this goal.
With these dollars, the College will decrease student debt, increase the value of our students’ degrees, and bolster basic and clinical research leading to positive patient outcomes.
Since the launch of the Campaign on November 7, 2013, alumni and friends have established 15 new endowments – creating tremendous momentum toward the College’s goal.
