Help Build The Future In Kinesiology and Integrative Physiology
Your generous gifts have a direct impact on the lives of students and faculty members. Your support of the Department of Kinesiology and Integrative Physiology impacts the future health of our society.
Your gift directly impacts the Department's goals in research and education aimed at promoting health across the lifespan, preventing and treating chronic disease, and improving athletic performance. The Department requires smart classrooms and teaching space to recruit and retain world-class faculty, and areas for teams of multidisciplinary students to collaborate, and seek academic support.
What Your Gift Could Accomplish
Our students actively present their research at conferences throughout North America. Student travel is funded in part by generous gifts from our donors. Thanks to your continued support, we can send more students out into the future. Learn more about student experiences at the Annual Michigan Space Grant Consortium Fall Conference.
"The conference provided a great opportunity to meet and interact with professionals of many different fields, from astrophysics to geology, and gave us practice communicating our expertise across varying domains."
Donor- and State-matching opportunities are available. Contact Steve Elmer at sjelmer@mtu.edu to explore ways your support can multiply—ensuring your gift has maximum impact.
