The Campaign
Campaign Priorities
Endowment for Student Scholarships
Throughout the past two decades, the caliber of USC’s undergraduate student body has increased exponentially, fueling our skyrocketing prestige and reputation. One factor helping to propel this remarkable trajectory has been our commitment to meet 100 percent of undergraduate students’ financial need through scholarships and other types of financial aid.
Endowment for Faculty and Research Programs
A top priority for USC is to increase the number of exceptional faculty and ensure that current stellar faculty thrive in their teaching, research, and creative work. Like the catalyst in a chain reaction, USC faculty set off a cascade of effects that determine the quality of their departments, their schools or college, their students, and ultimately, their university.
Immediate Support for Capital Projects
While the main thrust of the Campaign is for people and programs, vital funds are also needed to provide the facilities and infrastructure necessary to support them on both our University Park campus and Health Sciences campus.
Immediate Support for Academic Priorities
USC has a rich history of developing leading-edge technologies, nurturing emerging art forms, and overcoming insurmountable odds in its pursuit of academic innovation, whether that means establishing the first cinema school in the United States in 1930, or, more recently, merging engineering and medicine to facilitate cross-disciplinary research.
