The program provides undergraduates (generally first and second years) an opportunity to combine course-based study, research, mentorship, networking, and career planning in STEM disciplines. There are currently three components to this program: STARS Academic Year Program, the STARS Summer Research Program, and the STARS II Program (supports juniors).
