Hawk Testimonial

In 2022, thanks to the LSAMP grant, Matthew Valentin was accepted into a paid 10-week research engineering undergraduate (REU) summer program sponsored by FSU and FAMU College of Engineering.

"I hope that many other students are allowed the same opportunity I have had because I believe programs such as REU are an essential piece to gaining more interest in STEM majors pursuing graduate school and for our country to continue paving the path to a bright future where America is the leading nation in technological advancements.”
