Samuel Research Team at N.C. A&T
STEM Education
The Samuel Research Team is working to enhance the diversity of the STEM research workforce through a variety of programs and initiatives.
NC A&T Scientific Research Preparatory Program (SRPP)
The NC A&T Scientific Research Preparatory Program (SRPP) aims to engage incoming freshman and rising sophomore undergraduate students who have little or no prior research experience and intend to pursue a career in STEM-M (science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine).
Specifically, our SRPP will prepare an annual cohort of 16 freshmen/sophomore students to successfully compete for admission to the NIH Summer Internship Program (SIP) and other highly competitive Summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU).
The NC A&T SRPP consists of three phases:
• an initial academic year component (spring semester onboarding student meetings),
• an immersive 8-week summer component,
• and then a yearlong engagement in an academic year mentored research project and other professional development activities.
A medical doctor proficient in programming languages is positioned for success, as machine learning and AI are set to dominate the landscape in the coming decade.
NC A&T Wildcats Coding Camp
The Samuel Research Team are partnering with Washington Montessori Elementary School, Bessemer Elementary School, and Faulkner Elementary School in East Greensboro to design and implement a 4-week camp filled with exciting and fun learning activities.
Our objectives are to:
- Decrease the loss of academic skills during the summer vacation period
- Increase academic skills in reading and mathematics
- Introduce students to basic concepts of machines and mechanical systems
- Introduce students to basic concepts of coding
