Program Managers Note: The KuC TCUP effort has benefitted immensely from the cooperation and team-effort demonstrated by KuC's TRIO sponsored 'TALENT SEARCH' program. This program has enabled TCUP faculty and staff to work directly with younger students, grades 7-11 , to encourage and develop their STEM interests. These cohort building efforts are already rewarding the KuC TCUP STEM initiative
