The Native American Science & Engineering Program (NASEP) is a FREE year-long program (summer program & year-long engagement) designed to provide Native American, Alaskan Native, and Hawaiian Native high school students with the necessary resources to enroll in college and pursue a career in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
Using Dr. Shawn Secatero’s “American Indian Well-Being Model in Higher Education,” NASEP provides activities aimed at holistically developing students. Program highlights have included an excursion to Biosphere II, networking with indigenous professionals from IBM and Raytheon, and building a computer “from scratch.”
Program dates: June 9-15, 2024
Priority Deadline: March 15, 2024
Eligibility: NASEP is open to upcoming juniors (class of 2026) and seniors (class of 2025) who are: enrolled members of an American Indian or Alaskan Native tribe or of Native Hawaiian, Alaskan Native, or American Indian descent; on track to completing physics, chemistry, and pre-calculus by graduation with a “C” or better; able to attend the summer dates of June 9-15, 2024; and willing to make an effort to attend NASEP events throughout the year.
