Our faculty fellow program and our seminars prepare VCU subject matter experts to connect with lawmakers and familiarize them with the nuances of Virginia government.
This program prepares VCU faculty members from across disciplines to work closely with Virginia legislators. Training includes how to effectively translate academic research into public policy.
