Opportunities
Natives in STEM is a new collaborative project between NM EPSCoR and the American Indian Science and Engineering Society. The project aims to increase Native American identity and sense of belonging in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) by creating and sharing positive images and stories of Native STEM professionals. Images will be presented as posters and stories will be shared through the NativesInSTEM.org website.
Small exhibits featuring NM EPSCoR energy research are being developed by three NM ISE Net members—NM Museum of Natural History and Science, Explora, and the National Museum of Nuclear Science and History.
All Seed Awards have been awarded for the Energize New Mexico project; no additional awards will be made.
The intent of the ISA program is to increase the access of undergraduate students, especially women and members of underrepresented groups, to research experiences by increasing non-PhD granting institutions’ capacity to provide research experiences for students.

A core group of 10 museums and four statewide organizations participates in NM ISE Net activities which include planning meetings, informal science education professional training, and collaboration on exhibits, programs, and teacher professional development. NM ISE Net also sponsors programs that are open to the broader ISE community in NM.
