Meet Stephen Still

Stephen Still.

Stephen Still is a UB alumnus who graduated with a bachelor’s in civil engineering with a specialty in transportation planning in 1976 and went on to earn master’s and doctoral degrees at Princeton University. Stephen has spent a prolific career in the field of transportation engineering in the airline industry, and then as the founder and manager of two successful companies -- Seabury Airplane Planning Group and Diio.

Early in his career, Stephen began giving back to UB, and has done so for almost two decades.

On October 5, 2017, Stephen gave $4 million dollars to the School of Engineering and Applied Science to support the institute that now bears his name. His gift helps fund research, program initiatives, equipment costs, and the work of graduate students studying transportation.
