Engaging rural, Alaska Native undergrads in Arctic STEM programs

March 3, 2020

University Relations

A listening session is looking for ways to better engage Alaska Native and rural Alaska undergraduates in Arctic science, technology, engineering and math programs. The session will be held Friday, March 13, from 5:30-6:30 p.m. in Wood Center Conference Room F. The event will be hosted by the Interagency Arctic Research and Policy Commission and the Arctic Research Consortium of the United States in partnership with the International Arctic Research Center.   

This will be an open space for people to share their experiences, thoughts and strategies on how to better engage students from the Arctic in STEM programs. Organizers want to know what is and isn't working, and hear your ideas on how to make these programs more useful to undergraduates.
