About Us
The mission of the SACNAS national organization is to further the work of, to improve the effectiveness of, and to enhance the public understanding of and appreciation for Chicanos, Latinos, Native Americans, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and other underrepresented minorities in science.
As the most diverse university in Virginia, and welcoming the most diverse freshman class ever, the GMU chapter of SACNAS welcomes ALL students, and encourage all to participate in increasing research opportunities for undergraduates in STEM.
Each one of the student officers have been involved in research here at George Mason University. We have seen the benefit, not only in improving our skills, but also increasing and improving interaction with professors and other faculty, improving our communication skills, learning how to present our research, and becoming more skilled science communicators
