Description:
The Research and Mentoring for Postbaccalaureates (RaMP) program at Northern Arizona University (NAU) seeks to advance Indigenous perspectives to address climate vulnerability in the Southwest through research training for and by diverse communities. The RaMP program is an intensive year-long research experience designed to train and connect recent college graduates, particularly Indigenous and Latinx participants, with research careers supporting improved ecosystem health within their own communities. Northern Arizona University’s program is funded by the NSF’s Research and Mentoring for Postbaccalaureates in Biological Sciences.

RaMP scholars will work closely with mentors to design and implement research projects focused on helping to mitigate or prevent the damaging effects of climate change on southwestern landscapes. Our long-term goal is to help you be part of a diverse and skilled workforce capable of responding to our unique regional challenges in climate and resources. Research projects will be co-produced by science faculty, Indigenous leaders, land managers, and fellows. This program aims to prepare participants for jobs or additional graduate education in these areas.

The program offers each participants the following benefits:

$37,000 one-year stipend to cover living expenses; NAU group health insurance (single); a laptop budget; and travel expenses for field research, conferences, and workshops.
