Learning, Teaching, and Research Center

Vassar College

The Learning, Teaching, and Research Center (LTRC), offers a coordinated set of activities—workshops, programs, lectures, and small group consultations—that seek to bind the values of equity, inclusion, and belonging within the ongoing work of deepening faculty and student capacity for effective teaching and transformative learning.

For Faculty

For Students

  • Quantitative Reasoning Center (Q-Center)
    Offers quantitative support through Q-Tutors and Supplemental Instructors.
  • STEPP Program
    Provides semester-long opportunity to partner with faculty to observe their class and support their teaching practices.
  • Writing Center
    Offers support at any stage of the writing process through experienced peer-readers and writers.

The LTRC connects students and faculty with one another across disciplines, recognizing that both students and teachers are involved in learning, leading, and scholarship. The center’s mission includes helping students realize their academic potential and achieve their educational goals as well as supporting faculty in their professional development.  

The LTRC houses thriving peer-tutoring programs in writing, quantitative reasoning, and core academic skills. The LTRC also provides faculty with inclusive teaching and learning resources, funding opportunities and grants for research, and further support for their development as educators and scholars.
