Our Mission

The Sloan Indigenous Graduate Partnership (SIGP) aims to transform graduate STEM education in ways that:

  1. Support the inclusion of Indigenous perspectives, knowledge, values, and experiences in scientific research, teaching, and community engagement.
  2. Allow scholars to address issues relevant to Indigenous communities.
  3. Encourage and prepare talented students who have such interests and expertise to pursue STEM graduate education and careers.
  4. Foster strong community engagement on and across individual SIGP campuses.
