We enhance lives through learning, discovery and innovation.

The Bailey College of Science and Mathematics cares deeply about the success of our students. We believe in the power of Learn by Doing to provide a challenging and inspiring education. 

Each year hundreds of our students participate in opportunities such as undergraduate research, service learning, and study abroad. These high-impact experiences enhance personal and professional growth.

• Undergraduate Research Fund:
  • In the Bailey College of Science and Mathematics, students learn and work side-by-side with professors in their research labs. They get hands-on experience with state-of-the-art equipment, laboratory spaces and methodology, which allows them to discover answers to real-world questions. Help us achieve our goal of ensuring all students have the opportunity to engage in meaningful undergraduate research during their tenure.
• Learn by Doing Fund:
  • Foster student success through hands-on Learn by Doing experiences, shaping future leaders with impactful learning opportunities. Examples include student-run conferences, community building, and high-impact opportunities for deserving students. 
• Department Funds:
  • Flexible funds for departmental needs, supporting student initiatives, programs, professional development, and Learn by Doing and the department level. 

An anonymous supporter has pledged $25,000 to the Bailey College Undergraduate Research Fund. They are challenging others to match their first contribution of $5,000, directly impacting undergraduate research opportunities for students in the college.
