VSGC AWARDS
The
Vermont Space Grant Consortium is an organization involving
Our Affiliates .
Funded in part by a grant from NASA's National Space
Grant College and Fellowship Program, key goals of the Consortium
are to build research infrastructure within the state, encourage
Vermont students to take more mathematics and science, and promote
consideration of careers in aerospace-related areas
.
STRATEGIC PLAN AND GOALS:
●
Promote links between Vermont colleges and universities and NASA
Field Centers and Mission Directorates.
●
Fund competitive
proposals from faculty mentors for Graduate Research Fellowships to
support graduate students
who are involved in
research projects in areas of interest to NASA. In addition to
training the next generation of
scientists and
engineers, the research component of these fellowships should have
the potential to increase
Vermont's research
infrastructure.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
