Welcome to the official blog of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship's Emerging Scholars Network (ESN)! ESN is a national network which supports those on the academic pathway as they work out how their academic vocation serves God and others. We encourage and equip undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and early career faculty as they navigate each stage of their academic vocation and transition to the next step in or beyond the academy.
