Welcome to the School of Dentistry Office of Development Web page. The central mission of the Office of Development is to generate public and private support for the School. Public and private support provide the margin of excellence necessary for the School to maintain its leadership position in dental education.

The School consistently ranks among the leading dental schools in the nation and the world, as measured by its instructional programs, its research accomplishments, and the influence of its graduates on oral health care. For more than a century, the School of Dentistry has contributed to Michigan's reputation as one of the world's preeminent universities.

The close interrelationship of teaching, patient care, research, and service is Michigan's mission and strength. The integration of these purposes creates a wide-reaching learning environment with real-world applications.

Our enduring commitment to quality and achievement in our faculty, students, and programs is dramatically enhanced by the generous support of alumni/ae and friends of the School of Dentistry.

Gifts to the School of Dentistry help us to attract and retain the finest teachers and researchers; to provide students with need- and merit-based financial support; to maintain and equip a model health care and instructional facility; to appropriately treat patients; to provide service opportunities for students, faculty, and graduates; to offer alumni/ae programs; and to provide ongoing continuing education courses for graduates and other dental professionals.

All gifts to the School of Dentistry are sincerely appreciated. Our promise to you is a simple one-- we will be responsible stewards of your gifts and we will strive to remain deserving of your loyalty, friendship, and generosity.
