Since November 2001, NACME has been proud to partner with the Alfred P. Sloan
Foundation in managing two innovative graduate scholarship programs focusing on
increasing the number of underrepresented American minorities in mathematics,
the natural sciences, and engineering graduate programs. The Minority Ph.D.
Program, established by the Sloan Foundation in 1995, offers eligible doctoral candidates
the opportunity to pursue their Ph.D. degrees with financial, mentoring, and guidance support
through recognized participating faculty and departments
approved by the Sloan Foundation. The American Indian Graduate Program (AIGP),
initiated in 2003 through a partnership between the University of Arizona and the Sloan
Foundation, was expanded in Fall 2005 to include the participation of
select faculties and departments at The University of Montana,
Missoula and Montana Tech of The University of Montana, Butte. In 2007 Purdue University was also added to the program.
This site provides extensive information on these programs for prospective scholars and faculty.
