Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation

**Our Mission** LSAMP is designed to support the retention and persistence of underrepresented undergraduate students in STEM by providing community support, academic and professional development opportunities, as well as mentorship. **Who We Serve** Programming and paid opportunities are open to all students in STEM majors. LSAMP's target audience is any and all who self-identify as Black or African American, Latino or Latina, Native American, Native Alaskan, Native Hawaiian, and other Pacific Islanders. *PSU LSAMP serves all STEM students and is supported by the Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science. LSAMP launched at PSU in 2009 and was previously funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF).* **About LSAMP** Since 2009, LSAMP has supported hundreds of students in their academic journey at PSU. These students join our welcoming community of peers and advocates. They regularly use the LSAMP Center, perform independent research in labs, or secure internships in technology and engineering fields.
