Oil Patch Insider: Rasmuson Foundation award goes to ANSEP

The Rasmuson Foundation board of directors said July 15 that the Alaska Native Science and Engineering Program, ANSEP, will receive a $5 million award over five years as part of the foundation’s Tier 2 grant program.

The foundation said the University of Alaska Anchorage will match the award with created program support reaching $1 million annually after year five to help institutionalize and sustain ANSEP’s award-winning components.

“For decades leaders in the Native community and rural villages have struggled with how best to raise their students’ achievements. The key to ANSEP’s success is really simple. If you raise expectations for students, provide access to challenging curricula and provide a supportive environment that expects high achievement, the students will exceed expectations,” Rasmuson Foundation President Diane Kaplan said in a statement.
