The main component of MAP is a structured, six-week, hands on summer research experience for both students and teachers under the direction of active science research mentors at Montana State University-Bozeman.
The goal of the Montana Apprenticeship Program (MAP) is to increase the number of Native American and disadvantaged high school students who want to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and math career fields.
Additionally, MAP offers opportunities for K-12 inservice and preservice teachers of disadvantaged students to strengthen their teaching skills.
Funding for MAP is provided in part by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
