Information changes lives. It drives economic development, builds community, equalizes opportunity and sparks innovation. By offering top-tier academic programs and conducting trailblazing research with social, cultural and organizational impact, the UW iSchool develops solutions to today’s most crucial information challenges and produces graduates who will address challenges not yet imagined.

Private support has never been more important. Every gift makes a difference to the quality of the education we can provide and the research we conduct. We are deeply grateful for the continuing support of our alumni and friends, whose contributions are creating opportunities and providing much-needed resources.
