The Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) is a program created by the National Science Foundation (NSF) which aims to diversify the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) by fostering the success of historically and currently underrepresented Native American, African American, Hispanic/Latino and Pacific Islander students in those fields. LSAMP is focused on increasing these students’ interest in STEM degrees, guiding them through completion of their baccalaureates and facilitating their transition to advanced post-graduate studies or the STEM workforce. 

Accepted applicants must be able to commit to attending workshops AND participating in research in the Spring/Summer. GPA requirement is 2.5.
