Opportunities:
WISCIENCE offers programs and courses designed to build community and benefit diverse populations of STEM undergraduate students, including programs specifically for transfer students.
For STEM Students
STEM Study Squads
Make it easier to stay on track by joining a STEM Study Squad! In weekly small group meetings, students combine individual work time with social support and collaboration in order to stick to their goals, share with other students, and have fun.
STEM Engagement Peer Leaders
These undergrad students can help you connect to people, resources, and experiences to support your success in STEM. Housed at the STEM Commons in Steenbock Library, their role blends mentorship, community-building, and academic support.
BioHouse Learning Community
A residential learning community for first-year students interested in the biological sciences. As a co-sponsor of BioHouse, WISCIENCE is excited to offer this unique opportunity for students to get the most out of their Wisconsin Experience.
