At UB Chemical and Biological Engineering, we provide opportunities to collaborate with faculty and researchers across the campus and Western New York's scientific communities. We inspire students to think bigger, and in turn, they discover new energy sources, more efficient vaccines and improve everyday life through health, energy and environmental breakthroughs. A donation to the Chemical and Biological Engineering Annual Fund helps make these accomplishments possible.

The Chemical and Biological Engineering Department created the Graduate Fellowship Fund to support outstanding graduate students with an extra level of stipend. Our goal is to create 25 merit-based scholarships, each at the $10,000 level for a total of $250,000 annually. We hope to start funding the global leaders of tomorrow one at a time, and to achieve our goal within the next five years.
