Network for Vocation in Undergraduate Education (NetVUE) Grant: 

The NetVUE grant focuses on adding career readiness and vocational exploration to the classroom. Projects for the 2023-2024 academic year: 

  • Faculty presentations and discussions focused on vocational exploration and industry partnerships 
  • Audit of current career benchmarks in all undergraduate programs 
  • Development of a working definition of vocation 
  • Curriculum mapping to help students explore vocations across their major courses. This helps ensure students meet career benchmarks. Faculty received eight department stipends for this project.
  • Embed career competencies into CAS General Education syllabi (using the National Association of Colleges and Employers standards)
