NASA Nebraska Space Grant Fellowships

Scholarship Description

The Nebraska Space Grant awards fellowships to undergraduate and graduate students for research and educational opportunities. Underrepresented minorities and women are strongly encouraged to apply. Students must attend one of the Nebraska Space Grant Consortium institutions during the entire timeframe of the funding (fellowships may end in December for graduating seniors or students planning to transfer to another institution). The goal of the program is to recruit and retain students in STEM fields, providing them with workforce skills to prepare them for employment with NASA or the aerospace industry. The fellowships require engagement in STEM fields, and therefore are not traditional scholarships.
