Minority Science Students Project

Since 1986, Purdue has hosted the Minority Students Science Project (MSSP). This is a one-week summer program organized by Regina Todd Hicks, Director of Minority Programs for the School of Science. MSSP is supported by external funds from major corporations, as well as funds from the School and the seven departments. Participants are students who have completed their sophomore/ junior years of high school. Normally about 35 students participate each year.
