About

As an active research university, UNCW students, faculty and staff are advancing the frontiers of knowledge, solving critical world problems, and enhancing the economic and cultural vitality of our community. 

Gifts supporting the research and innovation enterprise provide resources that enable faculty and students to conduct ground-breaking research and inform real change in our coastal region, our state and beyond.

Your gifts during Seahawks Give provide aid to the:

Research Excellence Fund – This fund is used to encourage and support research excellence at UNCW.  This includes helping to support Research Achievement Awards that recognize and reward faculty who are generating a substantial volume of high-quality research, innovation, scholarship, and creative work, and who are emerging as leaders in their fields (meet recent awardees). 

Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE) – giving to the CIE supports its work to nurture high-impact startups with education, connections, and incubation and collision space, and to accelerate the entrepreneurial ecosystem in southeastern North Carolina as a vibrant hub of innovation.
