Please consider applying LSAMP program.

==================================
Dear Emerging Scholars and Faculty Mentors,
Since you are currently in the Emerging Scholars program, I would
encourage you to consider applying for the LSAMP program for the spring
semester, if you are eligible. This program offers really nice perks for
students and faculty mentors! Students receive a stipend of up to $5000
depending on year ($1000 for Freshmen, $2000 for Sophomores, $3000-$4000
for Juniors, and a whopping $5000 for Seniors). Moreover, faculty
mentors receive $250 for research supplies. So if you are doing a
project that can be extended into a longer-term project, then it clearly
pays to continue this in the spring in the LSAMP program. Interested?
Then follow these steps:
STEP 1: Students, read the attached brochure and check that you satisfy
all of the eligibility requirements below:
i. Majoring in and doing a research project in science, technology,
egineering or mathematics.
ii. African/American, Hispanic, Alaskan Native, American Indian or
Native Pacific Islander.
iii. US Citizen or permanent resident
iv. Full-time student (12 credits or more)
v. GPA of 2.8 or above
STEP 2: Students and faculty mentors should discuss a research project
and agree to apply as a student/faculty team. Your proposed project for
the LSAMP program could be a continuation of this semester’s project.
STEP 3: Register online at projectstem.net and submit an application.
Students and faculty should work together on the application.
