Preparing Leaders in STEM
The ULV SACNAS Chapter prepares undergraduate students to thrive in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics by combining community, mentorship, and intentional professional development. Through workshops on curriculum vitae preparation, personal statements, interview skills, graduate school planning, and networking, we equip students with the tools necessary to move confidently from the classroom into research, industry, and advanced study. As an affiliated chapter of the national SACNAS organization, we serve as a local ambassador for expanding opportunity and strengthening representation in STEM. We believe that when students are supported, prepared, and connected, they rise not only as scholars—but as leaders.
Pathways in STEM
Explore professional development, research opportunities, and community-based support designed to prepare you for leadership in STEM.
Education & Student Empowerment
Learn how to navigate campus spaces with confidence, build supportive networks, and protect your ability to stay focused on earning your STEM degree — particularly in moments when broader policy shifts or enforcement climates can create stress for students and their families. Education is long-term power, and we are here to help safeguard your ability to learn, persist, and lead.
Research & Internships
Connect with faculty research, summer programs, NSF REU opportunities, and internship pathways that deepen your academic journey. Whether through local lab engagement or national research experiences, these pathways foster mentorship, discovery, and the pursuit of questions that shape your growth as a scientist.
