Founded in 1906, the University is comprised of three esteemed schools-the College of Arts and Sciences, Suffolk University Law School, and the Sawyer Business School. Suffolk's 86,000 alumni are professionally successful and civically engaged, and they reside in Massachusetts, across the United States, and in over 150 countries. Suffolk is beginning an exciting new era and building a comprehensive Advancement program to support the University and its plans for the future.

These fundraising officers will have direct responsibility for building a major gift program encompassing all of Suffolk's programs and schools.
