Endeavor Program

Rhode Island has a long tradition of valuing the sea, an integral part of our economy and culture. The identity of Ocean State citizens is tied to fishing, marine research, ocean recreation, and marine technology development and manufacturing. As part of this tradition, the state of Rhode Island sponsors the Rhode Island Endeavor Program at GSO.
