Giving to the NAE
Turning Ideas into Reality
The NAE Independent Fund is our one truly discretionary resource. It supplies the seed money to explore and launch new initiatives and provides for continuity of our operations. Critically necessary, the NAE Independent Fund is highly leveraged as externally funded studies and projects are developed.
- The Independent Fund supported pre-project planning for our exceedingly successful Grand Challenges for Engineering project.
- Our Independent Fund sustained the early planning and provided supplementary funding for another project, Engineer of 2020, one of the most successful and widely disseminated project ever conducted by the NAE to date.
- Without the Independent Fund, the creation of the NAE Center for Advancement of Scholarship on Engineering Education (CASEE), which establishes excellence in engineering education, would not have been possible.
Targeting Projects for Great Success
