TRIO STEM Scholars Program
OUR PROGRAM
TRIO STEM Scholars is a federal TRIO Student Support Services program funded by a $272,364 grant administered by the US Department of Education. TRIO STEM is one of five Student Support Services programs located within the Center for Multicultural and Educational Opportunities at Boise State University.
