Bridge to Enter Advanced Mathematics (BEAM)
BEAM works to create pathways for underserved students to become scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and computer scientists — and hopefully statisticians!
From the BEAM’s website: “Despite decades of effort, low-income and minority students remain vastly underrepresented in science and math related fields. EAM works to address these statistics by meeting students early and bridging the gap between their aspirations and the opportunities provided to them.” Learn more.
