Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation

Students

LSAMP works in collaboration with the MEP and SEES programs to provide academic support, advising, opportunities for career networking, undergraduate research opportunities and preparation for graduate school. Activities to support STEM students begin with entering freshman and transfer students and continue to graduation. See links below.

Lower Division Students

Academic Excellence Workshops (AEWs) through MEP & SEES

AEWs are offered in the foundation courses of Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, Statics and Dynamics. Participants regularly attending the workshops, earn a stipend, higher grades and graduate sooner than non-workshop participants. Many participants go on to become facilitators themselves, reinforcing their own knowledge while helping others and earning some money toward their education.
