Giving
Welcome Alumni and Friends!
You may have known us as the Department of Botany, the Department of Integrative Biology, or even the Department of Zoology. Regardless, we’re glad you’re here!
The Department of Biology, the first of its kind at UW–Madison, brings together the talents of the former Botany and Integrative Biology departments. Joining forces across biological kingdoms opens doors for new collaborations that will deepen our understanding of life at a variety of scales, from cells to ecosystems and in all the interconnected spaces in between.
No matter how big or how small, your gift makes a difference.
Your gifts help us prepare the next generation of biologists to find solutions to real-world problems spanning from medicine and human health, to ecosystem conservation and sustainability. Support from gifts helps to:
- fortifying outreach programs
- support scholarships and awards for undergraduate and graduate students
- support new education initiatives to benefit undergraduate and graduate students
- support field work and student research
- acquire and maintenance of top-of-the-line research instruments and education tools
