The American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit professional association with the goal of substantially increasing American Indian, Alaskan Native, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, First Nation and other indigenous peoples of North America representation in the fields of science, technology, engineering, math (STEM) and other related disciplines. Its headquarters is located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. {{as of|2013|5|1|df=US}}, Sarah EchoHawk is the Chief Executive Officer.{{citation needed|date=August 2013}}

Since its founding, the society has held the annual, three-day AISES National Conference, which includes the largest job fair in Indian country.[3]

{{as of|2011}}, AISES has 177 chartered college and university chapters and 13 professional chapters in the US and Canada. In addition, 150 affiliated K-12 schools enroll in excess of 45,000 Native American students.[4]

Winds of Change magazine

AISES publishes Winds of Change, a quarterly magazine on science, technology, engineering and math fields and Native Americans.[5]
