Legacy & Remembrance

Leaving听Abertay a legacy means you continue to empower talented minds for future generations.

Some people leave us a gift in their Will, some bequeath听awards or bursaries. Whatever you and听your family decide,听you can be certain it will make a big difference to our students' lives.

In all cases, we听appreciate that this is a delicate subject, so please to contact us if you need to discuss it. We are here to help, and听understand the sensitivity involved in making these decisions.

"In 1968 I graduated with BSc (Hons) Civil Engineering from the Dundee College of Technology, now Abertay University.听 Having gone on to a highly rewarding career of some 50 years as a Chartered Civil Engineer working on many successful mega-projects鈥I plan to leave a financial gift to the University.I sincerely hope that my legacy, when realized, will help support Abertay to continue to develop its significant contribution to society in the education of its undergraduates.鈥澨Ian M.

LEAVE A GIFT IN YOUR WILL

Non-specific legacy gifts are the greatest help.听This means we have the funds to support students through ever-changing priorities, such as COVID 19.听Or you may want to direct your legacy to:

  • Awards or prizes.

  • Outreach/widening access activity.

  • International activities including travel bursaries and study trips.

  • Academic investment such as sponsoring a specific area of research.

  • Improving the University buildings or specific areas of the campus.听

What type of gifts can you听leave in your Will?

Obviously we cannot give you advice听about writing your Will. We advise you to speak to a qualified legal professional. But here are the kind of gifts you may want to consider.

A pecuniary gift - a fixed sum of money such as 拢5,000.

A specific gift - a valuable item like property, jewellery or even shares.

A residuary gift - a share of your estate such as 5% of your total wealth.

If you would like to include - or have already included - a gift in your Will for Abertay, we would be very grateful if you would听tell us (assuming you feel comfortable to do so).听This means听we can thank you and communicate appropriately.听Please contact us for more information.
