Let's join hands with the University to promote academic and research excellence by setting up a Named Professorship.
Gift Arrangement
The donation will be used for setting up a permanent endowment fund.  The endowment fund will not be used directly, but the income generated from it, plus contributions from the University where appropriate, will be earmarked for the Named Professorship.
Fund Management and Usage
The permanent endowment fund will be managed by the University following established policy. The annual return will support the Named Professor in his or her academic and research activities which may include part of the remuneration package, start-up funds and research funds.
Appointment of Professorship
The donor can designate the Named Professorship to IAS or one of the four Schools (Science, Engineering, Business and Management, and Humanities and Social Science). Preferences on specific discipline could be considered. Nomination and appointment of the Named Professor will follow strictly the established procedures of the University.
Recognition
The Named Professorship may be named in honor of the donor, a person or an entity of the choice of the donor. This naming for a named Professorship is for perpetuity.
 
Named Professor will carry his or her full title on all occasions, and in all academic publications, news, and international interactions when appropriate. A ceremony will be held in honor of all Named Professorship donors and holders of the Named Professorship. The donor will be kept abreast of the latest development of the Named Professorship with regular updates on the use of fund and details on the Named Professor's scholarly activities and research progress.
