INTRODUCTION TO STANFORD:
Stanford University, founded in 1891, is one of Silicon Valley's largest and most prestigious employers. Stanford is among the top academic institutions in the country, excelling in a wide range of fields from the humanities to information technology to the health sciences and medicine. Our mission is to educate future leaders and promote interdisciplinary, world-class research and teaching. Stanford is an outstanding place to work, with competitive benefits and salaries, access to ongoing training and education, a healthy lifestyle, intelligent and kind colleagues, a beautiful campus, exciting intellectual content, and the experience of interacting with interesting alumni and major philanthropists.
INTRODUCTION TO OFFICE OF DEVELOPMENT AND THE STANFORD ALUMNI ASSOCIATION:
The fundraising work of the Stanford Office of Development (OOD) underwrites every aspect of the university’s mission of teaching, research, service and patient care. The gifts raised help us offer one of the most generous financial aid programs in the United States and carry out groundbreaking research that benefits people worldwide. Last year, we raised over $1 billion in philanthropic gifts.
Separately, the Stanford Alumni Association (SAA) reaches, serves and engages all Stanford alumni and students, and fosters a lifelong intellectual and emotional connection between the University and its graduates. We deliver the most effective alumni relations program anywhere in higher education, including a bimonthly magazine; online communication and networking tools; academic and social programming (on and off-campus); a worldwide travel/study program; and numerous Stanford-related products and initiatives.
