Cornell University, Ithaca, NY

The Diversity Programs in Engineering office is a proud partner of the Upstate New York Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation in science and engineering.

The CU LSAMP program is housed in the College of Engineering, and what an exciting time to be in the College. The impact of first-rate research on the educational enterprise is immeasurable. Our engineering students, immersed in this atmosphere of discovery, learn from and work with faculty members who are pioneering new knowledge at the forefront of engineering sciences. Participation in this research-enhanced environment opens a world of possibilities for students and produces inspired individuals: critical thinkers and creative leaders to address the opportunities and challenges of tomorrow.

Our LSAMP mission mirrors that of the Alliance. In collaboration with our six partner campuses, we are committed to developing the next generation of innovators and growing a workforce highly qualified for a knowledge-based economy. We want to attract and maximize the potential of students from underrepresented populations, specifically African-American, Latino American and Native American (AALANA) in Upstate New York who are enrolled in Engineering fields.

We offer academic, professional, and social programs designed to increase and enhance the recruitment and subsequent graduation rates of first-time freshmen, transfer students, and continuing students. Opportunities such as internships, scholarships, fellowships, mentoring, and research are available to LSAMP students. The CU LSAMP has a particular focus on research. Go to http://www.engineering.cornell.edu/diversity/office-diversity-programs/summer-programs/LSAMP.cfm to find out more about our summer undergraduate research program.

We invite you to explore the CU LSAMP and our College of Engineering, both online and in person. We welcome the opportunity to share with you our community of talented individuals and their commitment to excellence in research, education, and service.
