Gerald and Carol Vovis Center for Research and Advanced Study

An estimated 85% of our students complete an independent research or creative project by the time they graduate, and 53% report working on a research project with a faculty member outside of course or program requirements -- much higher than the 37% reported at peer institutions.

The Gerald and Carol Vovis Center for Research and Advanced Study (CRAS) can help you with:

• Undergraduate research, scholarship, and creative work -- Managing the numerous research programs, activities, and opportunities available to students
  
  

• Faculty grants and sponsored research -- Securing external funding to support your research and scholarship
  
  

• News and events -- Showcasing the research, scholarly, and creative successes of faculty and students, and keeping our Knox community informed of related events and opportunities
