Dr. Pamella Shaw moderates a panel of six LSAMP alumni. They share their narratives about participation in undergraduate research and learn about the impact these opportunities had on their lives academically and socially. Our panel spotlights the trajectory a research scholar experience has on opening doors to STEM networks. Students receive tips and strategies for pursuing a STEM degree or career. Original presentation at IN LSAMP Annual Conference, Fly High with STEM, on October 3, 2020.
