The generosity of our alumni, friends and institutional partners powers the new-knowledge engine at Case Western Reserve University’s Case School of Engineering.
Each gift—whether to the Case Fund (the Annual Fund of Case School of Engineering) or to the university—helps attract top-notch students and faculty, strengthen undergraduate and graduate education, and build facilities and resources to stimulate cutting-edge research.

The scholarship I received from Case Western Reserve was absolutely critical in my decision to attend CWRU over other schools I applied to—as well as being able to attend college at all. The scholarship really made the difference between just hoping for an education that could change my future and real options to make that happen."
