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.
As of May 2025, PSU LSAMP is supported by the PSU Provost Office, with assistance from the Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science. LSAMP launched at PSU in 2009 and was previously funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF).
