LaSER Young Scholars Mentoring Program

路易斯安那大学海洋联盟将为15名12年级的学生发起一个为期10周的、通勤的、多学科的青年学者项目。路易斯安那州卓越研究刺激计划（LaSER）是一个旨在提高路易斯安那州科学和工程学术研究竞争力的项目。设立了“青年学者指导计划”，将在科学和数学方面具有特殊才能和成就的高中生与活跃的研究人员进行一对一的指导关系。该计划最初侧重于路易斯安那州数学、科学和艺术学校，该学校吸引了来自全州的优秀学生，其目标是最终将该计划扩展到全州其他天才学校和磁石学校。后续活动包括研究导师对路易斯安那学院的访问，以及对项目毕业生的密切跟踪。

The Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium will initiate a ten-week, commuter, multidisciplinary, Young Scholars project for 15 students in grade 12. The Louisiana Stimulus for Excellence in Research (LaSER) is a program to increase the competitiveness of academic research in science and engineering in Louisiana. It has established a Young Scholars Mentoring Program in which high school students with exceptional aptitude and accomplishment in science and mathematics are placed in a one-on-one mentoring relationship with active researchers. The program initially focuses on the Louisiana School for Math, Science and the Arts, which draws exceptional students from throughout the State, with the aim of eventually expanding the program to other gifted and magnet schools throughout the State. Follow-up activities include visits by the research mentors to the Louisiana School, as well as close tracking of graduates of the program.
