Retirement Gifts

As a memento of your years of service to the College of Engineering, the College would like to offer a gift to you. Thank you for your service and dedication to the College and the University of Michigan.


Gift Selection:

There are three options for selecting a gift. You may:

A. Select a gift from the Retirement Gift Catalog, or
B. Select a clock with the option to personalize, or
C. Select a chair with the option to personalize

For all of the options, you will need to complete the Michigan Engineering Retirement and Professorship Gift Request Form.

We ask that the selection process occur as soon as possible to ensure delivery as close to your retirement date as possible. The chosen gift should not exceed $400 in total. There are three types of retirement gifts to select from; chair, clock, or catalog. Please note that the catalog contains items that exceed the $400 limit, and the clock falls within the limit. Due to rising inflation costs, the chair can exceed the $400 limit with personalization and/or shipping and handling. However, the College has incorporated a new administrative policy that enables retirees the ability to choose the chair as a gift item. If selected, please see the “Retirement Chair Tax Liability” section in the Michigan Engineering Retirement and Professorship Gift Request Form for further details.

For more information, please contact the Office of Resource Planning and Management at (734) 647-7159 or [email protected].
