Internship Program for Postsecondary Students

美国印第安人科学与工程学会（AISES）成立于1977年，其目标是通过将科学、工程、数学和技术相关学科与传统的土著价值观联系起来，促进教育计划和战略，以增加美国印第安人和阿拉斯加土著学生的数量。通过AISES的“全方位支持”理念，鼓励未被充分代表的学生通过参加赞助的实习项目获得专业和技术技能，为科学和工程劳动力做出贡献。NSF将与AISES合作，为美国印第安学生提供实习机会，以扩大他们在各个STEM领域的前沿科学和工程研究。因此，美国国家科学基金会鼓励更多具有不同背景的学生参与科学和工程企业，这对未来的科学和工程劳动力至关重要。

Founded in 1977, the American Indian Science and Engineering Society's (AISES) goal is to foster educational programs and strategies to increase the number of American Indian and Alaskan Native students in science, engineering, mathematics, and technology related disciplines by linking these fields with traditional Native values. Through AISES' "Full Circle of Support" philosophy, under-represented students are encouraged to contribute to the science and engineering workforce by gaining professional and technical skills learned as participants in sponsored internship programs. NSF will collaborate with AISES by offering placements to American Indian students in order to broaden their exposure to cutting-edge science and engineering research in various STEM fields. As a result, NSF encourages more students with diverse backgrounds to participate in the science and engineering enterprise, deemed vital to the future to the S&E workforce.
