 and it can often feel like the next steps after college are ambiguous, especially when undergraduate colleges lack graduate programs. Smith is one of the largest women’s colleges in the United States, with students from 48 states and 68 countries. Unfortunately,
 Smith does not have STEM doctoral programs on campus and thus students lack access to learning about life as a PhD student researcher.

<span style="background:white">Thankfully, there are programs at Smith that do foster a sense of community in STEM. The AEMES (Achieving Excellence in Mathematics Engineering and Sciences) Program was built to support the success of women from historically
 underrepresented backgrounds in STEM-related education. In addition to peer-mentorship, this program provides funding to support paid research experiences so that fellows can perform research as their work-study job to build competitive applications for graduate
 school. </span><br>
<span style="background:white">We are starting a chapter of mentorship within HGWISE and the Harvard Biotech Club where PhD graduate students will be mentees to Smith AEMES fellows. We are surveying your interest (as a current PhD student or member of the private
 sector) in being a mentor in this future program. The exact nature of your virtual mentorship meetings would be scaled to your specific needs, mentors can host a mentorship meeting ranging from monthly or bi-monthly depending on personal capacity given your
 other responsibilities. </span><br>
<span style="background:white">In addition to the Harvard &lt;&gt; Smith mentorship program, will invite AEMES fellows to the virtual events hosted by Harvard graduate student organizations. These events will help undergraduates understand what the life of a STEM
 PhD student looks like, professional options available after getting a PhD, and attend panels from leaders across many different STEM related fields.
