The EEGAP program seeks to provide Howard University undergraduates with experience that will prepare them for graduate study in ecology and evolutionary biology. The program
consists of three components:
- academic year preparation for Howard University sophomores and juniors;
- summer research and mentoring for students selected as EEGAP Scholars;
- follow-up mentoring for seniors who have completed the EEGAP program, with the goal of admission to a strong graduate program in evolutionary biology, ecology, or environmental science.

EEGAP scholars will receive a summer stipend of $4400, with housing, meals, and expenses of travel to Davis covered by the EEGAP program.
