The Multicultural Apprenticeship Program (MAP) is a four-week summer experience program sponsored by the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (CANR) at MSU.

MAP is designed to give high school students in grades 10-11 the opportunity to experience college life and to explore the many exciting educational and career opportunities in the agricultural and food sciences, natural resources and related fields.

Through MAP, students work in many different areas including: food science, agricultural engineering, forestry, animal sciences, horticulture and crop and soil sciences, environmental and natural resource management, veterinary medicine and a number of other areas. Each MAP participant is matched with a faculty member to work on a research project. Students also participate in field trips, leadership seminars and a number of other educational, social and cultural activities
