FUNDING-NASA - Graduate Student Fellowship Activity 2018; March 20, 2018

 

Agency

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)

 

Description

The NASA Fellowship Activity provides financial support to graduate students pursuing a Master’s or Doctoral degree in STEM while partaking in graduate unique research projects under the guidance of an institutional Principal Investigator in collaboration with NASA Technical Advisers.  The NASA Fellowship Activity provides financial support to individuals who are early in their graduate education and have demonstrated the potential to contribute to NASA’s mission and future STEM workforce. The use of innovative professional development activities motivates learners, which leads to increases in the number of historically underrepresented and underserved populations, such as women, minorities, persons with disabilities, and veterans, who are pursuing advanced degrees in STEM disciplines. This activity develops a supportive Professional Learning Community (PLC) consisting of the fellowship cohorts, institutional faculty advisers (PIs), NASA researchers, NASA scientists and NASA program managers. The PLC intent is to support the graduate’s experience leading to an increase graduation rate.
