Undergraduate students from any science, technology, engineering or mathematics fields are eligible to apply for a $7,300 stipend to conduct a research or engineering project directly related to NASA鈥檚 interests. Must be a U.S. citizen. The application deadline is Sept. 1!

Visit the 性十八.cc Space Grant Program's for more information on applying.

性十八.cc Space Grant Program, headquartered at UAF, is a group of five institutions which includes UA鈥檚 three universities, 性十八.cc Pacific University and the Challenger Learning Center with the goal of fostering the STEM workforce and advancing NASA鈥檚 research goals. We aim to provide higher-education students authentic hand-on research and/or engineering experiences.

Consider visiting for a list of prior awards. NASA鈥檚 interests span Earth Science, Space Weather, Robotics, Aviation, Communications, Behavioral Health, and much more.

Interested students should choose a project, find a faculty/staff mentor and determine how it relates to NASA鈥檚 stated goals (See NASA Strategic Plan and NASA Technology Taxonomy). The application consists of a three-page proposal with big-picture and explicit project descriptions.
