Engineering & Science

At the University of Detroit Mercy, our College of Engineering & Science fosters creativity, collaboration, and a commitment to solving real-world problems. From groundbreaking student research to state-of-the-art facilities, our initiatives aim to empower students with the skills, experiences, and resources they need to lead in STEM fields.

Our current campaigns highlight the diverse ways your support can make an impact:

🏗️ Engineering Building Renovation

Inspired by alumnus Mark Haidar’s generosity, we’re transforming our Engineering Building into a modern hub for innovation. With $70,000 left to raise, your support will help complete this critical project, including updated flooring, improved natural light, and enhanced collaborative spaces.

🔬 Upgrade Our Autoclave

Support our biology and chemistry labs by funding the replacement of our hardworking autoclave. This essential equipment ensures our students can conduct cutting-edge research in fields like genomics, cancer biology, and virology.

💻 SEED Scholars Program

The SEED Scholarship Program supports engineering and computer science students with full-tuition scholarships and essential wraparound services. Your gift funds career development workshops, counseling, and summer bridge programs, ensuring the success of first-generation and underrepresented students.

🧪 Chem Club Travel to ACS National Meeting

Enable our Chemistry Club officers to attend the 2025 American Chemical Society National Meeting. With a $3,000 goal, your contribution ensures these passionate students gain invaluable professional development opportunities.

🌱 Biology Research Student Travel Fund

Help our undergraduate researchers share their discoveries on a national stage. Your support reduces financial barriers, covering travel, lodging, and registration costs for conferences that propel academic and professional growth.

🚣‍♂️ ASCE Concrete Canoe Team

Help civil engineering students design, build, and race a concrete canoe in this elite competition known as the "America’s Cup of Civil Engineering." Your donation funds materials, travel, and lodging for the team to compete at the ASCE Student Symposium this April.

Why Your Support Matters Every gift makes a tangible difference. Whether you’re funding research, supporting competitions, or transforming learning spaces, you are investing in the future of STEM. Together, we can shape a brighter tomorrow for our students and the world they’ll impact.
