SAMUEL GINN COLLEGE OF
ENGINEERING
Because of you, Auburn Engineering students are reaping the benefits of a $247 million investment in their futures, which is $47 million more than what the college aimed to raise during this campaign. What an astounding achievement! None of this would have been possible without you, our alumni and friends. Because of you, we’ve added nearly $1 million in annual scholarship awards, which allowed us to increase the number of students receiving scholarships by nearly 200. In addition, we have more than $65 million in new construction and renovations completed or underway and we have added 31 new professorships — the most of any college. We have hired more than 75 dynamic faculty members since 2015, lowering our student-to-teacher ratio and further bolstering our vision of being the best studentcentered engineering experience in America. The impact Auburn Engineering has on Auburn University, the state, region, country and world is immeasurable. Auburn Engineers are CEOs and executives of some of the world’s most prosperous and innovative companies, you’re on the forefront of technological and medical breakthroughs, you’re leaders in protecting our nation’s security, infrastructure and environment, and you’re some of the most dedicated, committed and loving members of the Auburn Family. Thank you for standing with us as we set an even greater path for the future of Auburn University.
