from passiveto active learning, enhanced research and laboratory skills, and increased understanding andinterest in the discipline are some of the benefits undergraduate students gain by engaging inresearch. Therefore, “engaging the students in research” is adopted here as a major strategy toimprove their retention in STEM programs. Faculty involvement in research mentoring not onlyleads to their enrichment as teachers but also enriches them as scholars. Though theresponsibility of the tribal college (TC) faculty is primarily teaching, engaging in research anddeveloping research project situations for students, research provides them opportunities toenhance their teaching capability and professional development.

through activities that provide for cognitive, social, and emotionalsupport. Cognitive support is common in undergraduate programs (laboratory research, tutorials,etc). However, social and emotional support components are typically not as well-developed andare often missing in programs targeting underserved students.For students to become full members of the community of scientists and engineers, they mustalso learn to communicate as scientists. One essential skill is learning how to become a criticalreader of peer-reviewed journals. A critical reader not only understands the material, but alsoanalyses how the author presents the material42. A critical reader will detect the purpose of theauthor, recognize bias, and be aware of tone/persuasive

weeks of summer 2010. In this case, the student took a 3 credit course indata communications, and the goals for the undergraduate research were closely alignedwith the topics that the student was learning in that class. The project focused on Fourieranalysis of periodic signals and its applications to data communications. This particularproject was tailored to fit the short time window of the program, which was total of sevenweeks with research posters due by the end of the 5th week. The project and the 3-creditcourse provided the student with the opportunity to:  Apply knowledge of mathematics to solve engineering problems;  Design and conduct experiments in the laboratory;  Use laboratory equipment to solve engineering
