- Recognition, branding, marketing and image exposure
- Faculty interaction and engagement
- Invitations to special events, receptions, seminars, lectures, forums, and focus groups
- Priority naming rights opportunities
- Sponsorship opportunities including Senior Design Center projects, major events, programs, and strategic initiatives.
