OUR GPS (Opportunities for Undergraduate Research and Graduate and Professional Study) is a new initiative funded by the Chancellor’s Innovation Fund. The goal of OUR GPS is to provide undergraduate students interested in pursuing graduate or professional education with research experience while receiving support and guidance from a faculty mentor.

OUR GPS aligns with the following objectives of the VTSU strategic plan:
Objective 1: Increase access to affordable, high-quality educational opportunities for learners throughout Vermont and beyond
Objective 2: Position Vermont State as a premier career-ready university
We are seeking proposals from faculty members who would like to engage in a paid research opportunity. OUR GPS will support the funding of five faculty-student research fellow pairs to begin working together this summer on their proposed project.
