Gatorade Sports Science Institute (GSSI) Professors Program

Fall 2024 and Spring 2025 Semesters

In partnership with ACSM, the Gatorade Sports Science Institute (GSSI) is committed to providing educators with high-quality content and industry-leading research for their students. GSSI is extending its Professors Program into fall 2024 and spring 2025, to continue to support the increasing number of programs offering education in sports nutrition at the undergraduate level. GSSI guest lectures will include a presentation on one of the selected topics below and an interactive Q&A. If you’d like to participate, submit your request as soon as possible, as spots are limited to about 10-12 slots per semester.

Please note, this form is for fall 2024 and spring 2025 submissions. In order to ensure we’re able to extend the opportunity for a variety of universities, there is a two-semester maximum when requesting guest lecturers. If you have participated in the past, you are still welcome to submit a request for these upcoming semesters.
