There's also something special about the feeling of accomplishment you get when you experience success in a professional environment.
2024 Clark Scholars Summer Program - Tamunobelema Olungwe
My advice in approaching this experience is to go into the Clark Scholar Summer Program experience with an open mind. You gain lasting relationships, receive hands-on experience, networking and building relationships with faculty, and know more about campus all before you arrive freshman year. Taking full advantage of these things allows you to gain all the benefits intended such as feeling at home within the campus. Never hesitate to ask questions, engage in conversations, and be you.
Greg Joyner
A mind is a terrible thing to waste, yet back in the mid-’70’s, I, personally, witnessed, the waste of countless of brilliant minds at UMCP. This was before CMSE and BES were formulated. We decided that we needed to do something to stop the wasteful trend, so we founded CMSE and BES to help to achieve the 3R’s, recruit, retain and release qualified minorities from the University of Maryland, into the fields of science and engineering. Over the past 40 years, I have witnessed many academic and career success stories of minority graduates from UMCP, and I am committed to helping this trend continue. I believe that the achievement of the 3 R’s remains an important goal at UMCP, the CMSE, and the BES and I am looking for others who share my vision.

Clark Scholar - Study Abroad
Definitely study abroad if you’re interested! The winter, spring, and summer break options are really feasible and you can learn a lot in such a short period of time! I highly recommend!
