\n

All currently enrolled undergraduate 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year students who identify with Native American, Native Hawaiian\/Pacific Islander, or Alaska Native<\/strong> heritage are encouraged to apply for the Researcher Award and\/or the Summer Peer Mentor and Community Assistant Position below.

All participants engage in community-building activities including a Guest Speaker Series, Research Roundtables, and a formal Luncheon and Research Showcase\u00a0 – all while receiving guidance and support from their cohort and from other members of tribal, local, and campus communities.<\/p>\n
