The Carl L. Monismith Legacy Endowment honors a legendary figure in transportation and asphalt pavement engineering whose mentorship touched 37 doctoral and dozens of master’s students who now lead across ten states and nine countries worldwide.
To celebrate what would have been Carl’s centennial birthday this fall, we have secured 70% of the $250,000 needed to endow a MS fellowship in Civil and Environmental Engineering. Join us in honoring Carl's legacy by supporting the next generation of brilliant graduate scholars in CEE at Berkeley. Reaching this milestone will permanently establish the Carl L. Monismith Endowed Graduate Fellowship for future CEE students at UC Berkeley.
Your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar: A $25,000 matching challenge allows you to double your impact.
How to give:
Flexible Options: Give online, by check, wire, stock, or DAF. Choose between a one-time gift or a multi-year commitment (up to 5 years). All gifts are tax-deductible.
Multiply Your Impact: Leverage your employer’s corporate matching program if available.
To learn more or make a gift, please contact Leah Katz Ahmadi, Senior Director of Development, College of Engineering, at lkahmadi@berkeley.edu.
Please note: if total giving does not reach $250,000, it will remain a generous endowment supporting the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.
In addition, to preserve the fund's spirit and the intent of the original donors, new donors understand that future administrative changes may be made to the endowment if it becomes difficult to spend, provided such changes remain consistent with the original purpose. Donors agree that these potential updates may be made without further consultation.
Our initial online fundraising drive has ended, but we continue to grow the fund to honor Carl Monismith. Information is available on giving by check or other means or, for questions, contact Berkeley Engineering, 510.642.2487 or bef@berkeley.edu.
