Lions Forward Campaign

Lions Forward: The Campaign for Missouri Southern

At Missouri Southern, our vision is to be a leader in offering relevant academic programs whichlogo fulfill the educational needs of each student. In an effort to continuously advance this vision, the university has launched Lions Forward: The Campaign for Missouri Southern.  This five-year, $42.7 million fundraising campaign will transform our campus and will provide current and future students with access to a higher education experience that will change lives. 

Missouri Southern’s strategic plan is aligned with the seven priorities of the Lions Forward campaign: student scholarships, Health Science Innovation Center, immersive learning, academic excellence, student success center, student activity center, and athletics excellence.

With your help, Lions Forward will prove to be transformative for our students and our campus. With a gift to the campaign, YOU can make an impact on the lives of future Lions and on the communities we serve for generations.
