Society of Mexican American Engineers and Scientists Symposium When: November 27, 2004 Where: Austin Marriott at the Capitol and Austin Convention Center, Austin, TX Institute: NIH Office of the Director, Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity Management (OEODM) In 2003, the NIH entered into a partnership with the Society of Mexican American Engineers and Scientists (MAES). An element of NIH's support is to participate in the MAES Annual International Symposium and Career Fair. This year, NIH will offer workshops, a career fair exhibit, and presenters from various NIH Institutes and Centers who will speak about NIH research initiatives and opportunities.
As part of its support, NIH has identified student “role models” to participate in MAES workshops on science, math, and technology-related subjects. It has also provided technical assistance for the MAES Research Design Competition Guidelines. The MAES mission is to promote excellence in engineering, science, and mathematics while promoting the value of cultural diversity.
