SMU Introduces New Facility to Advance Graduate Education and Research

The Moody School, which began operations in fall 2020, provides resources for new and current graduate students to support faculty-led initiatives that create groundbreaking research and offer dynamic instruction. Expanding graduate programs and funding graduate student and faculty success supports our goal to enrich teaching and research.

The landmark $100 million gift from the Moody Foundation powers SMU’s efforts to deliver transformational graduate education and support the needs of students to pursue and succeed in their advanced studies at SMU. As a direct result of this investment, PhD fellows supported by the Moody Foundation gift are creating significant impact in their fields of study through rigorous academic inquiry and faculty-mentored scholarly investigations into the world’s biggest problems.
