A brief description of the institution’s programs that help increase the diversity of higher education faculty :
Several UMM programs focus on exposing underrepresented students to research opportunities and encouraging them to pursue graduate studies. We are a member of the "Northstar Alliance", an NSF-funded program that seeks to increase the success rate of Native American, African American and Hispanic/Latino students in STEM (Science Technology Engineering Math) fields. In addition, we have a STEP program that seeks to encourage Native American students to participate in environmental science research projects. Another program is MMP, the Multi-Ethnic Mentorship program which provides students of color the opportunity to receive a stipend for working with faculty or staff on year-long projects.
