The Appalachian Undergraduate Research Alliance is made up of eight colleges and universities that are working toward enhancing education and the quality of life in the Appalachian region.

The NetVUE grant will expand various initiatives of the university’s Center for Vocational Discovery.

The two new pathways include a direct-entry method for first-year and transfer students and an LPN to BSN pathway for working nurses.
