    The Baker and Cook Fellowship | Sponsored by Atomic Object, Ann Arbor Students of color, especially Black, Indigenous, and Hispanic Latinx students, are chronically underrepresented in STEM careers. There are many factors that play into this reality, but one is that people of color tend not to have a professional support network to lean on throughout their education in STEM. By founding this fellowship, we intend to build a bridge from our organization to these individuals to provide this support. Atomic Object is uniquely positioned to be able to provide both financial and academic support to BIPOC students seeking to enter STEM with a formal degree.
