Sponsorship Opportunities

Why become a sponsor?

Event sponsorships are a great way for individuals and companies to show their support for North Dakota State University. Through the support of sponsors, we can minimize costs and provide exciting programs to NDSU alumni and friends. Many of the NDSU Foundation events also help raise dollars for student scholarships.
