This Project Grant award of $196,814 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the salary and professional development of one full-time STEM faculty member at Sitting Bull College. The goal is to help maintain the college's STEM program as it recovers from enrollment declines and loss of funding due to the deleterious impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, the funding will be used to retain STEM talent and instructional capacity at Sitting Bull College through June 2023 by supporting one STEM faculty member. This aligns with the program's statutory mission to increase STEM instructional and research capacities at Tribal Colleges and Universities, which serve Indigenous students.
