The Vermont Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (VT EPSCoR) helps build the state’s capacity for scientific research and trains a diverse, prepared science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce. We do this through multi-year, federally funded projects that integrate statewide higher institutions, stakeholders, private sector, partners and collaborators. Together, research teams, post-doctoral associates and graduate students work to advance science and engage stakeholders, undergraduate interns and high school teams to discover new scientific knowledge, share broadly with diverse communities, and train the next generation of innovators.
