Introduction to NASA Fellowships
The NASA Nebraska Space Grant is pleased to announce the next round of applications for the Introduction to NASA Fellowships is open! The Introduction to NASA Fellowships program targets freshman and sophomore students attending our academic affiliates across Nebraska. NASA Nebraska Space Grant plans to make 20 awards at $1,500 each. The goal of the awards is to expose students to NASA careers and fields of study who may have always been interested in or passionate about NASA and space, but never knew how to get started.
During the award period, students will identify a faculty mentor, research scientific or technical NASA careers that are of interest to them, determine fields of study that would lead them to be competitive for these careers, and complete an innovative product. In addition to their faculty mentor, the NASA Nebraska Space Grant Fellowship Coach will work with the students in small groups. The Fellowship Coach will help connect them with NASA, answer questions and overcome barriers, and advise them on career paths.
Applications are due March 18, 2022 by 5:00pm CST.
