Endowments

Endowments are gifts that provide Auburn Engineering with perpetual income.  The Aubun University Foundation, in accordance with AUF policy, invests the principle of hte endowed fund. Only the allocated income from the investment of gifts is used to fund programs and initiatives designated by the donor, thus providing an ever-increasing stream of funding.  Endowments are essential for the long-term security and growth of the college.
