New Programs Fund
CMU has embarked on an exciting phase of growth and development in our academic offerings, aiming to be even more relevant to the rapidly evolving needs. We recently launched our new Bachelor of Social Work and our new Master of Arts in Spiritual Care. Over the coming years, we plan to introduce several other initiatives, also designed to meet the changing needs of students, employers, churches, and our world more broadly. These are exciting days as we look ahead and envision the future of CMU. We'd like you to be part of this future.
Like our programs in social work and spiritual care, the new areas we are exploring will directly address our society's big problems.
CMU's new programs will produce job-ready grads who have the knowledge, skills, character, and credentials to work as agents of change in an ever-changing world.
You already know the transformative power of a CMU education—education shaped by the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. You understand how CMU grows generations of leaders, problem-solvers, and trailblazers in the church, in the workplace, in the community, and in the world. We need your help as a driving force for continued academic excellence.
Your generous support of the CMU New Programs Fund will enable us to pay for the research and development work required to assess, build, and launch new inventive, in demand, viable academic programs.
Your gift will not only uphold CMU's legacy of academic excellence and innovation but ensure that we continue to lead the way in producing grads who have a lasting impact on the churches, communities, and organizations they serve.
Will you join us?
We need $300,000 per year (above our annual operating budget) for the next six years to financially bridge us through the program inception phase to full program enrolments (and the corresponding tuition revenues).
CMU receive far less government funding than public universities do, and CMU receives no financial support for program development.
We need your help to sustain the future—CMU's future and the future our grads will help build.
CMU knows how to build programs that meet the needs of a hurting world.
CMU grads are change makers.
