Louis Stokes Alliance For Minority Participation
The LSAMP Scholars Program at Boise State University connects students to research and experiential learning opportunities to engage, inspire, and improve the overall success of students from historically underrepresented backgrounds in STEM. We hope to create a culture and a community of students that can engage and support one another.

LSAMP REU
The LSAMP Summer Research Experience for Undergraduates (LSAMP REU) provides LSAMP-eligible students with a stipend to conduct research with a faculty member at Boise State University for 10 weeks during the summer. Students get to select the number of hours they would like to commit each week, choosing between 20, 30, or 40 hours per week. The stipend will range from $3,000 to $6,000 depending on the number of hours a student selects. LSAMP REU students will work with a distinguished faculty mentor and develop research knowledge, critical thinking, and leadership and communication skills. At the end of the summer, the students will present and celebrate their work and research at a state conference.
“Making connections with other staff and researchers has helped build my confidence.”
