The Math and Science Division instructors make sure that the students have access to help as needed. The faculty has established office hours, but also makes appointments to meet with students on an as needed basis. Math tutors are also provided by student services and a class has been developed to tutor students on all levels of math to assist them to move to the next class in the sequence. All of these strategies help to ensure that students are successful in their classes and hopefully keeps them motivated to continue their education.

The faculty in the Math and Science Division make recruitment efforts a daily enterprise by talking to students in the hallways, classrooms, and in the community. Official events such as speaking at orientation and other college recruitment gatherings is done by all of the faculty.

Past students, who have participated in American Indian Higher Education Conference, have repeatedly won in science competitions. Other students have presented at national conferences after successfully completed research projects. Students who have graduated from Blackfeet Community College and transferred into a four year university have been able to take their ongoing research projects with them. The university acknowledged their research project’s validity and have supported the continuation of the research projects. One student has obtained national recognition for his research project that began at Blackfeet Community College.
