Buffalo, NY – UB is getting a $53.5 million dollar in-kind donation from the world's largest independent technology company.
Electronic Data Systems of Texas gave the university the same hi-tech engineering software used by leading manufacturers.
About seven hundred undergraduate and graduate students each year will be able to get hands-on training with the same advanced engibneering software they will likely use when they enter the workforce.
It's the largest gift ever received by UB, and also puts the university's $250 million dollar capital campaign more than thirty million dollars over the top.
