STEM in the Liberal Arts Program
STEMLA empowers first-generation, limited-income Bryn Mawr students to thrive in STEM by building identity, community, and career pathways through mentorship, exploration, and comprehensive academic support.
About STEMLA
The STEMLA program at Bryn Mawr College is a free, interdisciplinary college-transition and mentorship program supporting first-generation, limited-income undergraduates from matriculation to graduation and beyond. We believe these students bring valuable lived experiences that can advance scientific discovery, and we aim to cultivate their strengths for success at Bryn Mawr and in their post-graduate lives. Grounded in evidence-based practices, STEMLA empowers Fellows through exploration, self-discovery, and identity building, ensuring they thrive in STEM while building community and career pathways. We create spaces for Fellows to explore interests, develop a STEM identity, and pursue fulfilling, values-aligned careers as they shape the future of STEM.
