Endowed Scholarships
The Endowed Superior Graduate Student Scholarships Program听was introduced in 2014 through the Board of Regents Support Fund (BORSF). This program
pairs a 60% private-sector match with a 40% Board of Regents award to endow a Scholarship
that may be used in support of graduate and first-professional students as well as
post-doctoral fellows.
不良研究所 Foundation endowed scholarships听established with 100% private donations require a minimum corpus of $25,000, which
may be accrued over a period not to exceed 60 months. An endowed scholarship specifies
that the principal be held intact, invested, and the annual income used for student
scholarship awards. When the scholarship is established, a scholarship criteria agreement
defines the contact information for the donor(s), the specific purpose of the scholarship,
and the specific guidelines or criteria for the use of the award.
Annual scholarships (non-endowed) may be established with an amount recommended to
be not less than $1,000 per year and a minimum of 5 years.

Endowed Chairs
The Endowed Chairs for Eminent Scholars Program was introduced in 1987 through the Board of Regents Support Fund (BORSF). This program
pairs a 60% private-sector match with a 40% Board of Regents award to endow a Chair
to be filled by a scholar of high renown and great ability. The Board of Regents endows
Chairs in any discipline at two levels:
- $1 million total endowment ($600,000 private investment/$400,000 BORSF)
- $2 million total endowment ($1.2 million private investment/$800,000 BORSF)
The endowed chair is a distinction awarded by the university to a scholar or teacher in recognition
of past and potential original contributions to the individual's academic discipline.
In addition to the academic honor given to the individual, an endowed chair provides
funding for support of his or her teaching, research, and service responsibilities.

Endowed Professorships
The Endowed Professorships Program was established by the Louisiana Board of听Regents in 1990-91. The Endowed Professorship
program is designed to broaden opportunities for faculty enhancement on diverse types
of campuses.
Endowed Professorships help recruit superior new faculty and/or retain faculty whose
research, teaching, and/or public service have uniquely contributed to the missions
of their departments and institutions.听 A major purpose of the Endowed Professorships
program is to create stronger economic development ties between the private sector
and higher education.
An Endowed Professorship is established by pairing an 80% private-sector gift with
a 20% Board of Regents award through a permanent trust fund - the Louisiana Education
Quality Support Fund. The minimum private investment required to establish an Endowed
Professorship is $80,000.听 This gift is then eligible to receive the Board of Regent鈥檚
$20,000 match, creating a $100,000 Endowed Professorship.
Endowed Professorships are flexible and intended to meet the needs of widely varying
disciplines, campuses, and academic units in one or more of the following ways:
- to provide salary or discretionary spending supplements that will increase the retention
of exemplary professors
- to enhance research competitiveness in achieving Federal funding
- to improve research ties with industry by linking industrial researchers with faculty
- to strengthen the capacity of departments to achieve regional, interstate and/or national
eminence in education or research
The endowed professorship is a distinction awarded by the university to a scholar or teacher in recognition
of past and potential original contributions to the individual's academic discipline.
In addition to the academic honor given to the individual, an endowed professorship
provides funding for support of his or her teaching, research, and service responsibilities.
