Strengthen the GSB’s Excellence in Teaching and Scholarship

Our faculty develops the frameworks and evidence that support world-class leadership education. Your support enables new classes, dynamic case studies, classroom technology, and the growth and development of young faculty who will teach our students in the decades to come. It also supports investments in data, computation, and other cutting-edge resources that make possible the pioneering research produced by the GSB faculty.

Make a GSB Education Possible for Every Admitted Student

Over half of MBA students receive need-based financial aid. The Business School Fund fills the gap between student need and the endowment income from dedicated fellowship funds each year. Alumni support is not only life-changing for students, but vital in helping the GSB attract, admit, and enroll top candidates who would thrive here, but otherwise couldn’t afford to accept our offer of admission.

Once enrolled, your support provides crucial aid promoting student mental health and wellbeing through compassionate relief funding, mental health care, and wellness programs. It also enriches the student experience through 61 diverse student-led clubs catering to various interests in order to foster personal growth, professional development, and a strong sense of community.

Our mission is “to create ideas that deepen and advance our understanding of management and with those ideas to develop innovative, principled, and insightful leaders who change the world.” To fulfill this mission through mounting changes and challenges today, Business School Fund support allows the GSB to adapt in real-time, hosting dozens of convenings on campus, and nearly 70 research projects exploring solutions. Your gifts help teach students and stretch their thinking with courses on sustainability, AI, and leading with ethics and values that will prepare them to be responsible leaders in any field.

Help Expand the GSB’s Impact Across Stanford

For the first time in the school’s history, we are offering a portfolio of classes taught by GSB faculty to undergraduate and co-terminal masters students across the university. Stanford Pathfinder aims to augment a broad liberal education with knowledge of organizations, markets, decision-making, and leadership. Based on positive early reviews, initial support for the program from donors like you, has reinvigorated faculty and student participants alike.
