I started college and majored in Engineering without any knowledge of this program, was found by the founder himself and inducted into the program, and I am so thankful he did. What was created as a solution to a problem in Alaska has grown to become a national model, and has been mirrored across the US in similar programs in many universities; None are as successful as ANSEP or have such a profound impact on the STEM fields. I started this program when there were only a few students and a couple of graduates. There are so many things that are great about this program and I owe much of my success to Dr. Herb Schroeder, Ilisaurri. I was already a successful student, but through this program I have gained lifelong friends and a community during my time at UAA. I will be forever grateful to you, Ilisaurri.
ANSEPer for life!
P.S. You don't have to be Native to join, just interested in the STEM fields. read more
