Fostering Research Collaboration

Fostering Research Collaboration at App State

RIEEE exists to increase research capacity and impact, elevate Appalachian State's research profile, and build opportunitites in strategic priority areas of sustainability research.  We believe that our greatest value-add toward these goals is achieved by focusing on research teams, helping them build and sustain momentum, and by creating shared research infrastructures, or convergence platforms, on our campus and in our community.
