The Genomics Outreach for Minorities (GenOM) Project provides educational and research opportunities for underrepresented minority students interested in genomics. These programs target pre-college and undergraduate students. Ambitious in scope, the project includes the following activities:

* High school student research opportunities
* Undergraduate research and travel scholarships
* A life sciences tutor at the Instructional Center (IC)
* Undergraduate advising, mentoring, course clustering, and graduate school preparation
* Graduate recruitment fellowship and financial support
* Professional development workshops, including research ethics

To achieve its goals, the project has partnered with other campus programs: MESA, MSEP, OMA, GO-MAP, UWEB, BRIDGES4, the UW Genome Center, the Microscale Life Sciences Center, and the High School Human Genome Program (HSHGP).
