Researchers to explore success of Aboriginal women in science, tech, engineering and math studies

According to Montana State University, the National Science Foundation in the US has funded a study into possible success factors for Native American women studying in the so-called ‘STEM’ fields— science, technology, engineering and mathematics:

“Native Americans, particularly female Native Americans, are under-represented in the fields and [researchers Jessi L. Smith Ph.D. and Anneke Metz] hope to provide insights on how Native women going into the fields can stay and become successful.”
