even graduate students in STEM. First, mostengineering graduate students are funded, and most are funded for their research. Further,time to degree completion for engineering doctoral students is low—on average about 5years—since engineering research is typically funded on grants or industry sponsorship thatencourages results and publication. The culture of engineering departments, even thoughcultures vary between departments and institutions, is different than those of other science,technology, and math departments, which often have different structures for research groups,mentorship, and expectations of graduate students. Therefore, we posit that we must studyengineering graduate students separately from students in other disciplines, though

Activities for the five year proposal period focus on attractingthe Native American high school students to the tribal colleges, retaining them through thecollege, facilitating their smooth transfer to the university, and motivating them for higherstudies. Because of the vast distances involved between each of the five tribal colleges and theuniversity, and the sparsely populated nature of the region, distance education technology willnecessarily play a key role. For example, some of the activities will be over a two-way videonetwork (Interactive Video Network) connecting all of these colleges and the university.
