The Verna J. Kirkness Science and Engineering Education Program prepares Indigenous students to graduate within the sciences. In 2018, the program was held at First Nations University of Canada in Regina, SK. Scholarships are awarded to Indigenous Grade 11 students who are invited to spend one week at universities from across western Canada. Students participate in hands-on laboratory research with scientists and engineers to learn about the area of study, to learn about possible role models, and to learn about the support systems available on campus.
