Engineers Make a World of Difference

American Indian Science & Engineering Society

Executive Director

The American Indian Science & Engineering Society (AISES) mission is to increase substantially the representation of American Indian and Alaskan Natives in engineering, science and other related technology disciplines.

Through a variety of educational programs, AISES offers financial, academic and cultural support to American Indians and Alaska Natives from middle school through graduate school. AISES provides professional development activities to enable teachers to work effectively with Native students. AISES also develops culturally appropriate curricula and publications. AISES builds partnerships with tribes, schools, other non-profit organizations, corporations, foundations and government agencies to realize its goals.

AISES especially helps American Indian and Alaska Native students prepare for careers in science, technology, and engineering.

AISES "Full Circle of Support" model provides a strong community of professional peers, opportunities and resources in addition to a tradition of reciprocity.  As we begin our year long 30th Anniversary celebration it promises to be an exciting time of reflection, celebration and well as a launch into AISES future.  Look for 30th Anniversary events, publications and giveaways!
