Eligibility
Technical and scientific expertise can open doors to a broad range of careers. Yet, the number of college students majoring in math and science has been declining, and is especially small among African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, and Alaskan Natives. In the coming years, students from historically underrepresented groups who are prepared to do so will enjoy expanded career opportunities in fields of health care, science, and technology, and in the licensed professions.
Binghamton University participates in the New York State Collegiate Science and Technology Entry Program to help economically disadvantaged students and underrepresented minorities succeed in their chosen fields. The program fosters a cooperative learning environment with support services that enhance each student’s academic growth and professional potential.
Eligible students must be:
In good academic standing and enrolled full time in an undergraduate or
graduate program
A New York State resident
Planning to study in the fields of accounting, engineering, nursing, pre-health,
pre-law, or psychology
Economically disadvantaged (as defined by NYS guidelines) or African American,
Latino, Native American, or Alaskan Native
