INMED Summer Institute Prepares Students

 

Native American junior and high-school-level students from across the country were at UND for six weeks this summer as part of the Indians into Medicine (INMED) Summer Institute program.

           

The annual Summer Institute is designed to bolster participants’ math and science skills, teach students about health careers, and help them develop their potential to achieve in health science classes.

           

Approximately 90 Native American junior and high- school-level students from 10 states attended INMED Summer Institute this year.

           

The program includes daily group and individualized instruction in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, communication and study skills. Indian health professionals and experts who represent a variety of health disciplines serve as guest speakers, giving an overview of health careers opportunities. The Summer Institute experience also includes field trips, recreation, pow wows, and Indian awareness workshops.
