Based on this impact, the design, creation, and maintenance of the builtenvironment presents both challenges and opportunities for design professionals. Sustainabledesign and green design have become everyday terminology in the design field and involve usingmethods and products that cause the lowest possible impact upon the ability of the naturalenvironment to maintain its natural balance.

Unfortunately, interest in the course by thescience graduate programs’ administrations has not yet appeared.The impact of the course in µEP students has been difficult to quantify, but anecdotal evidencefrom µEP alumni provide illustrative examples of how the course content has affected theirprofessional decisions: • One Ph.D. student started his own company based on his Ph.D. research upon

The graduate students had the opportunity tolearn about research activities through online workshops and then immediately implement theseideas. First, the graduate students practiced interviewing and using the protocol by practicingwith another graduate student. Next they transcribed and analyzed the interview with theirpioneer, and finally, the graduate students authored a profile about their pioneer.

The tribe decided against this quick-fix approach, instead choosing to rely on the beaver as a resident ecological engineer. For STEM education researchers working with tribal communities, it is essential that the curriculum be grounded in tribal culture and values. The community's desire is that their youth be prepared to stand in two worlds: one in one in which tribal values are fully honored and on in which they apply the best practices of western STEM knowledge.ConclusionEngaging tribal communities in education is critical to validate theoretical research, whichrecommends culturally relevant STEM experiences to inspire student
