Washington State University students in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields are invited to a research opportunities virtual fair Feb. 3 and 4 from 4–5:15 p.m., said program hosts.
They are the WSU Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participants (LSAMP) and the Team Mentoring Program (TMP).
“We are hosting the event to help students find a research faculty mentor and a project, and to explain possible financial support in the form of research awards,” said WSU LSAMP Director Yadira Paredes.
The fair is an annual event, though this year it will be conducted virtually using a Zoom platform due to in-person COVID-19 pandemic considerations. Also new this year are discussions led by graduate students from about 20 faculty-led programs across the university.

Washington State University students can apply online now through March 5 for a variety of awards to support their mentored research, scholarship, and creative activities in academic year 2021–22, said Mary Sanchez Lanier, assistant vice provost.
“Thanks to the vision of generous donors and other funding, recipients of these awards students from all majors and campuses can afford to spend more time concentrating on their research efforts rather than having to work at a job,” she said.
Five types of awards are available this year. Two are presented by the Office of Undergraduate Research in the Division of Academic Engagement and Student Achievement, one is from the Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture, another is awarded by the WSU LSAMP (Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation) program, and the fifth from the Team Mentoring Program (TMP).
