Freshman STEM Ambassadors Prog
The overall goal of the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) Ambassadors Program is to increase levels of retention and graduation of STEM students and increase the number of students who enroll in graduate studies or pursue careers in STEM fields
Freshmen work in small groups with a pair of graduate student mentors that they select based on STEM interests. They engage in a variety of activities related to STEM research and engagement. Students experience the STEM research culture at the university explore research happening on campus at UMASS Amherst.
