    The showcase demonstrates to students, faculty, staff, alumni and the greater Central Florida community that student research builds upon and enriches the UCF undergraduate experience.<\/p>\n

    Natasha Mitchell, coordinator for Academic Support Services for the PRIME STEM Project, noted that she is pleased to work with such a focused, motivated and amazing group of scholars and peer mentors who are pursuing careers in research in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).<\/p>\n

    \u201cOur PRIME STEM scholars and peer mentors are the leaders, scientists, researchers, and engineers of tomorrow and they are ready to face any challenge that they might face,\u201d said Mitchell.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    The UCF PRIME STEM Project\/Student Support Services is part of the TRiO program funded by the U.S. Department of Education and is housed in the Division of Student Development and Enrollment Services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
