The goal of this program is to build minority participation in nuclear physics by providing summer internship opportunities for indigenous women; historically one of the most underrepresented groups in STEM.  This will be accomplished by extending a successful pilot program titled “Engaging Indigenous Women in Gluon Saturation Search in Nucleus” that formed a strategic partnership between Los Alamos National Labs (LANL) and Fort Lewis College (FLC).  In this program students from FLC spend the summer engaged in paid nuclear physics research at LANL consisting in a combination of experimental design, physical modeling, and continued education in the underlying theory of particle and nuclear physics.  In addition, students have the opportunity to visit the world’s largest particle accelerators at Brookhaven National Lab (BNL), Fermilab and the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and interact with many of the fields leading scientists.  The pilot program has proven effective at providing indigenous women with opportunities for both employment and post-baccalaureate education in physics and engineering. This proposal seeks to improve on the existing program through increased support of the students and an enhanced outreach component to recruit students from indigenous communities in the four corners region.
