The Central New Mexico region is home to large populations of Native Americans and Hispanics traditionally underrepresented in STEM. The state also contains an abundance of STEM-focused education and research, including a transition to clean energy that will provide new jobs and three national laboratories in the region. However, no alliance directly connects New Mexico STEM majors to innovation through training in technology transfer and entrepreneurship relevant to their heritage. The proposed activities offer great potential to positively impact societally relevant outcomes, including the broader participation of women and underrepresented minorities from Native American, Hispanic and low-income populations in STEM innovation and entrepreneurship. Broadening participation by increasing the representation of underserved groups in technology innovation and entrepreneurship is critical for maintaining global competitiveness and for promoting economic development, especially in communities historically plagued by endemic poverty and rural marginality.The conceived technology career pathway proposed in this project has significant potential to spawn an increase in the success of underrepresented populations in STEM, creating a new career pipeline at the intersection of higher education and research commercialization. This project will also enable the proposed research team to create a Shared Vision and the necessary knowledge-base to address the broadening participation challenges in STEM, especially for Native Americans and rural Hispanics.This program will advance knowledge and understanding in the field of STEM education that focuses on technology innovation and entrepreneurship by adding a novel aspect to the existing large body of work seeking to broaden representation in STEM academic programs and careers. This program will focus on the development of a profile of the rural digital identity that operates within New Mexico’s underserved populations. An investigation of the role that indigeneity plays in relation to other identity categories has become increasingly urgent. The role of identity at this very complex moment in world history requires the use of intersectionality as a means of provoking a deeper understanding of the way people belong to communities and serve as change-agents within those communities. This profile will be instrumental in providing much needed context for educational and economic development programs aimed at connecting underserved communities to global markets using technological innovation as the mechanism for new models of economic prosperity.This project is jointly funded by Science of Science: Discovery, Communication, and Impact, and the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

新墨西哥州中部地区是大量美洲原住民的所在地，西班牙裔传统上的人数不足。该州还包含大量注重STEM的教育和研究，包括向清洁能源的过渡，将为该地区提供新的就业机会和三个国家实验室。但是，没有联盟直接将新墨西哥州的专业人士与技术转移和企业家精神相关的培训与创新联系起来，拟议的活动提供了巨大的潜力，可以积极影响与社会相关的成果，包括妇女的更广泛参与以及来自美国原住民，西班牙裔和低收入人群在STEM Innovation and Introprencation and introprenephip和introprenephip and toprenship和sem introprenship中的广泛参与。 Broadening participation by increasing the representation of underserved groups in technology innovation and entrepreneurship is critical for maintaining global competitiveness and for promoting economic development, especially in communities historically plagued by endomic poverty and rough marginality.The conceived technology career pathway proposed in this project has significant potential to spawn an increase in the success of underrepresented populations in STEM, creating a new career pipeline at the intersection of higher education and research商业化。该项目还将使拟议的研究团队能够建立一个共同的愿景和必要的知识基础，以应对STEM的扩大参与挑战，尤其是对于美洲原住民和粗糙的西班牙裔。该计划将在STEM教育领域的知识和理解中提高知识和理解，该计划专注于技术创新和企业家，通过为现有的大型工作范围内的工作来扩大STEM Intorical Careers和Career Career in in STEM Career和Career career care and of STEM Careers和企业家，以实现技术创新和企业家的身份。该计划将重点介绍在新墨西哥州服务不足的人群中运作的粗糙数字身份的概况。对土著性与其他身份类别相关的作用的调查变得越来越紧迫。身份在这个非常复杂的时刻在世界历史上的作用需要使用交叉性作为一种对人们属于社区的方式的更深入理解并充当这些社区中的变革者的一种手段。这一概况将有助于为教育和经济发展计划提供急需的背景，旨在使用技术创新作为新的经济繁荣模式的机制将欠服务的社区与全球市场联系起来。该项目由科学科学共同资助：发现，沟通和影响力，以及通过启发竞争性研究（EPSCOR）的启发性宣传（EPSCOR）的成立计划（EPSCOR）。智力优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
