Elevate Research
The Elevate Research program takes an evidenced-based approach to student success and addresses several strategic priorities we aim to advance at Radford University including
• expanded and equitable access to undergraduate research, scholarship and creative inquiry experiences (URSCI)
• closing equity gaps and raising overall student retention, progression and graduation rates
• Support faculty embedding URSCI & career readiness skills primarily into first- and second-year courses where we see the greatest impact of these experiences on retention and progression
• And diversifying classroom leadership to increase representation as our student population has diversified at a much greater rate than our faculty
