The “New” American Dilemma

The relative absence of African Americans, American Indians, and Latinos in STEM study and careers, and the requirement to reverse this situation to better compete globally,

is what we refer to as the “New” American Dilemma.

5

What Is NACME?Our Mission

To ensure American competitiveness in a flat world by leading and supporting the national effort to expand U.S. capability through increasing the number of successful African American, American Indian, and Latino women and men in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education and careers.

Our VisionAn engineering workforce that looks like America.

Our GoalWorking with our partners to produce an engineering graduating class that looks like America.

Our Purpose Our aim is to increase the proportion of African American, American Indian, and Latino graduates in STEM education and careers, our metric is parity in the workforce, and our methodology is connecting the network of like-minded individuals and organizations that share a commitment to these aims.

Our Beliefs We believe in the concept of the “learning organization,” a community in which each member is encouraged and assisted to grow and develop. We support a NACME culture that is informed by our mission. We focus on the results—increasing the proportion of African American, American Indian and Latino graduates in STEM education and careers. We are active, optimistic and engaged. We are creative, innovative and disciplined in our approach. We strive to be effective team members who are committed to doing our best work and to delivering the best results for our partners along the continuum from middle school to workforce entry.

NACME STEM Integration Model (NSIM) Linkage Strategy

15

16

The goal of the NACME STEM Integration Model is to facilitate a comprehensive pathway of URMs to engineering careers beginning in middle school. Our objectives include the following:

To develop regional partnerships of institutions along the NACME Continuum

To ensure that partners are invested in the NACME brand To evaluate each program based on expectations outlined in the

MOU To increase operational efficiency and effectiveness of linkage

programs To target funding opportunities for the integration model To ensure evaluation is integrated across all linkage programs

NSIM Linkage Strategy Objectives

17

Current and Future Benefits of the NSIM Linkage Strategy

• Provide access to NACME Partner Institutions

• Provide scholarship opportunities for AOE graduating high school seniors

• Provide access to participating NACME Corporate Partners

• Enhance opportunities to track the progress of AOE students as they become NACME scholars

18

Current and Future Benefits of the NSIM Linkage Strategy (Cont’d)

• Facilitate access and introductions for AOEs students

• Contribute to valuable research

• Improve opportunities for NACME scholar career prospects

• Join more than 9,000 NACME alumni since 1974

19

NSIM Statement for Corporations

Corporate partners may provide support that creates bridges between the AOEs and NACME Partner Institutions by increasing awareness about engineering careers and ensuring that AOE programs incorporate learning standards and content consistent with industry-recognized skills. Examples of opportunities for participation include:

• Serve on Advisory Boards of the Academies of Engineering• Conduct presentations about engineering opportunities • Support a research or an engineering design project by giving advice

and guidance to a team of students enrolled in an AOE• Provide an opportunity for students to shadow an engineer for a day• Provide summer internship and full-time job opportunities for NACME
