Promoting Excellence in Education through Research (PEER) and creative works
West Virginia State University recognizes the importance of research, as it is one of the University’s foundational mission components. To that fact, the Promoting Excellence in Education through Research (PEER) and Creative Works program is administered by the Office of the Vice President of Research and Public Service to provide financial support to encourage and foster the advancement of research, and to leverage these resources to attract extramural funding to promote and support the enrichment of academia and student learning at the University.
PEER is a grant program supported by Title III Funds from the U.S. Department of Education, and supplemented by other STEM-related state, foundation, private and federal funding.
