Corporate Partnership Program

Corporate Partnership Program | NC State Foundation

The NC State Design Corporate/Firm Partnership Program will develop a more connected relationship between companies and the College of Design, delivering high-impact programs to students and supporting value-added educational opportunities. The program will accomplish these four goals:

Broader and more predictable recognition for partners in and outside the college community.
Deeper involvement and connection with Design programs and events.
Critical and reliable annual support for programmatic activities.
Streamline the relationship between partners and the College, eliminating repeated requests for support from multiple college constituencies.
