Priorities
Gifts to the general IMCS/Rutgers Annual Fund and specified Leadership
Gifts support IMCS funding priorities:
| |
| |
- IMCS offers both an undergraduate major and minor in marine
sciences that includes hands-on research. Many students simply
cannot pay the full tuition, and even for those whose families
can, tuition covers only part of the full cost of educating
and training each student. Scholarship funds at IMCS can open
the door for undergraduates who would otherwise be unable to
pursue marine science.
- Graduate students are the next generation of promising teachers
and researchers. Their presence is also critical to the on-going
work of the faculty and the ability of IMCS to recruit and retain
additional faculty. Most graduate students do not have personal
funds to finance graduate work, and are attracted to institutions
where they receive fellowship support and can work closely with
leading scientists. Post-docs need help, too.

- Competition for the world’s best scientists is fierce.
A gift to provide a named chair recognizes a dedicated and skillful
faculty member and provides incentive for continued service.
|
- Supporting Projects and Programs
|
- State-of-the-art facilities are necessary for research and
teaching. In particular, IMCS urgently needs facilities for
its Ocean Science Education Center and the Coastal Research
Center. Included in the centers are laboratories and lecture
halls, seminar and conference rooms offering exciting opportunities
for a lasting tribute.
- Jacques Cousteau Education Center Outreach Programs provide
New Jersey and area K-12 teachers and students, and municipal
and state coastal decision-makers with the training and tools
they need. Gifts will ensure the continued outreach needed to
manage the protection and development of our coastal resources.
- Ongoing Research Projects -While
many of the research projects receive government funding, grants
frequently cover only the basic components of the research.
