We are excited to share this video highlighting the LSU EnvironMentors program—an authentic, locally-relevant, and transformative mentorship experience that connects East Baton Rouge Parish high school students with LSU undergraduate and graduate student mentors to explore environmental science through hands-on research, weekly meetings, and place-based field experiences around the state.
Through year-long research projects and meaningful mentorship, students gain critical thinking, communication, and STEM skills while building confidence and discovering new pathways for their future.
A special thank you to the Gulf Research Program for funding and supporting this work. We are also incredibly grateful for our partners, LSU College of the Coast & Environment, MissDelta Initiative, and EBR Schools, for making this program possible.
We are so proud of our students, mentors, and community who make EnvironMentors such a powerful and inspiring program. 💚

Stay tuned for more protégé spotlights!
