    PARTNER WITH US

    Invest in industry through a gift to the research that keeps it strong. Sponsorships, internships and fellowships are great ways corporations can partner with UF/IFAS.


    Our world is facing challenges much bigger than any one person, one organization or one university can resolve, but together we are finding solutions. When visionary researchers, professors and campus leaders partner with equally far-seeing philanthropists, we are limited only by our imagination. Thank you to our donors for their private support of $240 million dollars during the Go Greater Campaign.

    The VP Promise is a commitment to support and enhance programs that enrich the educational experience for undergraduate students in the UF/IFAS College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS).  Scott Angle invites you to join in this promise by supporting opportunities beyond the classroom.
