ASPECT is a theory based, interdisciplinary, and project centered teaching and research program.

Assuming good progress to degree, accepted students are eligible for up to four years of financial support as T. A.s while pursuing and completing their Ph.D degree. Additionally, ASPECT oversees an 18 credit hour graduate certificate program, which may be earned independently or while earning another graduate degree at Virginia Tech.
