Every gift made to the College of Business helps us advance toward new standards of excellence in teaching and research. Due to the significant gap between state funding and the cost of providing a top-100 business education, your investment in the College of Business is critical. Whether you give annually, establish an endowment, or make a planned gift, your support will make a difference in our students’ lives.
Greatest Needs in the College of Business
Dean’s Excellence Fund
The College of Business Dean’s excellence fund is a critical, unrestricted fund that enables the College of Business to respond to opportunities and challenges as they occur.
When you support the Dean’s Excellence Fund, you support the strategic vision of the College by allowing for the Dean to have flexibility in directing the use of resources to the priorities of the college.
GIVE TO THE DEAN’S EXCELLENCE FUND.
Professional Leadership Program
The Professional Leadership Program (P.L.P.) is a mentoring and leadership development program for students at UNT. It serves to develop our top students with the professional soft skills needed to have a leadership edge in any industry or position they seek after college.
The program is currently funded in two ways:
- State funding, which covers staff salaries and expenses
- Donations, which help offset costs related to program activities
Your donations enhance the program activities offered, and our students’ experiences, by providing additional networking and leadership-enhancing opportunities.

Study Abroad
Providing students with the opportunity to study abroad can be life changing. By participating in a study abroad program, students are able to develop cross-cultural communication skills and expand employment and networking opportunities.
All students deserve the opportunity to have their resume stand out, but not all students can afford to study abroad. Help to make that difference by giving a gift to the College of Business study abroad program today.
