About us
The UMaine Upward Bound Math-Science Program is unique. Students experience diversity and positive transition (learning to live on a college campus) in ways they may not have known. Whether it is the city to country transition, or meeting someone from another ethnicity, barriers (fear of the unknown) can be broken with students learning to accept a wider group of peers and ideas. Students also meet hundreds of other students with the same academic goals, and have the security of an encouraging academic community supporting them. They have a community of teachers and peers with whom they can engage in intellectual conversation or have someone with whom they can just be silly.
