Multicultural Agriculture Program (MAP)


Students use the MAP Center to study and connect with other students

 

The Multicultural Agriculture Program (MAP) provides support and encouragement to undergraduate students of all cultural backgrounds in the College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences with a peer mentor-based structure that cultivates student achievement and a sense of community.

  • MAP serves historically underserved and traditionally underrepresented students of all abilities, including Black/African American, Native American/American Indian, Hispanic/Latinx/Chicanx, Asian/Pacific Islander, LGBTQ+, First-Generation, Undocumented, and Low-Income.
  • MAP focuses on students establishing a connection and sense of belonging to the college in a casual and welcoming environment.
  • MAP organizes events each quarter that support academic, career and social engagement.
  • MAP values and respects a diverse, inclusive and equity minded student community.
