We’re currently recruiting participants for our National Science Foundation grant, Native Americans: An Exploratory Study Pinpointing the Factors That Influence Their Interests and Aspirations for Engineering Faculty Positions.
If you’re a Native American over the age of 18 and an engineering student or faculty, please contact us.
Participants will take part in an online survey, and in a focus group (students) or an individual interview (faculty).
The purpose of the research study is to develop a deeper understanding of the factors influencing Native American or Alaskan Native involvement in the engineering professorate. We hope to provide evidence for best practices for encouraging Native Americans to pursue the engineering professorate and to consider the academy as their professional home.
Participants will receive a $15 gift card for participation.
