Geopaths Mentorship Program
The Shadowing Research and Mentorship Program (SRMP) aims to provide an opportunity for high school students to be exposed to geoscience research projects with faculty at 91ÁÔÆæ. Nine high school students each year will be eligible to apply for a summer shadowing program held for two weeks at 91ÁÔÆæ during Summer 2023 and Summer 2024.
This program aims to expose high school students to geoscience applications in the real world with an emphasis on an inclusive approach for students with disabilities, English learners, and first-generation students. Students will receive up to a maximum of $700 stipend upon successful completion of the program. Stipends will be calculated based on the completion of daily online and in-person activities and assignments.
