AISES Scholarships Program
About This Opportunity
The American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) provides scholarships to fund the STEM futures of American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and First Nations students. AISES recognizes education as a means of empowerment and personal growth, fostering the diversity Indigenous students bring to STEM landscapes. The organization provides financial aid to Indigenous students in STEM through scholarships funded by dedicated donors and partners. AISES scholarships help minimize the barriers of college and university affordability among Indigenous students so they can continue on their paths to education. Contrary to popular belief, college is not free for Indigenous students, and these scholarships address the overwhelming expense many Native American students face when leaving their home communities to pursue higher education. The program has awarded over $7 million in scholarships to students pursuing STEM degrees. The scholarship program operates through the Online Scholarship Application Information System (OASIS), which matches students with scholarships they qualify for based on their eligibility criteria. Various scholarships are available including the AISES Stellantis Scholarship ($20,000) for automotive service technician students and travel scholarships for the AISES National Conference.
