Project SEED
Project SEED helps economically disadvantaged high school students expand their education and career outlook. The program provides opportunities for students who historically lack exposure to scientific careers to spend 8 to 10 weeks conducting hands-on research with a scientist in academic, industry, and government research laboratories. The students work with scientists, who help them develop laboratory, written and oral skills as they discover that they are capable of conducting scientific research. Mentors also provide guidance, encouragement, and letters of recommendation for college.

Lunch with this summer’s Project Seed students and their lab mentors. #ProjectSeed is a joint venture between #WSUchemistry, Detroit Section of the American Chemical Society, and the American Chemical Society. The mission is to provide sustained #STEM research, learning, and growth opportunities for high school students with diverse identities and socioeconomic backgrounds. Each of the students is paired with a lab where projects are designed specifically designed to develop their research skills. The labs participating are James Bour, Charlie Fehl, Long Luo, and Alice Walker.
