This conference was held at North Carolina A&T State University in Greensboro, North Carolina.   North Carolina Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (NC-LSAMP) is a partnership of eight institutions within the University of North Carolina system. The goal of NC-LSAMP is to increase the number of underrepresented minority students earning B.S. degrees, and subsequently pursuing M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in science,technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Since the inception of NC-LSAMP in 1992, combined efforts of partner institutions have resulted in a variety of programs and activities geared towards enhancing overall student success. Major initiatives include supplemental instruction, bridge programs, undergraduate research, and internships. This conference sponsored by NC-LSAMP showcases faculty-mentored research projects completed by students.
