The A.P. Sloan Foundation established The University of Montana Sloan Indigenous Graduate Partnership program fall 2005. The program has attracted an extraordinary group of Indigenous American graduate students, who are pursuing degrees in the natural sciences. Our students’ research includes wild rice, black bears, white bark pine trees, fish, neurology, water, buffalo, toxic dumping, and many other areas close to the heart of indigenous peoples.
If you are an Indigenous American who is interested in a graduate degree in science, technology, engineering or mathematics, we are very interested in talking with you. We believe that you will see that the UM SIGP program can offer you a unique opportunity to earn your graduate degree. Not only will you be given the opportunity for financial support, you will also have access to top faculty here on campus and the chance to connect with other Indigenous Americans pursuing graduate degrees.
Thank you for your interest in The University of Montana.
