The Nevada Space Grant Consortium (NVSGC) seeks to fund three Teacher Training and/or Hands-On-Training projects with a maximum federal contribution of $25,667 each. Due to requirements of the Space Grant program, a 1:1 institutional match is required on all awarded funds. The number of awards and funding level are contingent on the requested amount for each proposal and the availability of funds. We will announce the proposals selected for funding prior to our receipt of next year’s funds. Please note that potential delays in Congressional appropriations and release of funds that sub-awards will most likely not be released until June 2021.  

 The Nevada Space Grant Consortium (NVSGC) seeks to fund four projects for either Curriculum Development or Hands-On-Training. The maximum federal contribution for each project is $25,000. Due to requirements of the Space Grant program, a 1:1 institutional match is required on all awarded funds. The total maximum budget amount with match per proposal therefore is $50,000 (maximum $25,000 federal + maximum $25,000 institutional match). The number of awards and funding level are contingent on the availability of funds. We will announce the proposals selected prior to our receipt of next year’s funds. Please note that potential delays in Congressional appropriations and release of funds will result in sub-awards occurring in June 2020 or a little later.

The Nevada Space Grant Consortium (NVSGC) seeks to develop a diverse and capable Nevada STEM workforce by providing funds for NASA-related faculty research and/or workforce development projects. Selected faculty projects will enhance Nevada’s research infrastructure and/or provide STEM workforce development opportunities for students in NASA Mission Directorate research topic areas (see attached list). These funds should not augment existing funded research projects.

The Nevada Space Grant Consortium (NVSGC) announces available funding for the 2021-2022 Graduate Research Opportunity Fellowship. The Nevada NASA Space Grant Graduate Research Opportunity Fellowships program (GROF) is designed to support independently conceived NASA-related research projects by graduate students. NASA fellowship opportunities are focused on innovation through projects that will generate measurable results or advancements in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math which will contribute to NASA’s current and future science and technology goals.

The Nevada NASA Space Grant Consortium (NVSGC) announces available funding for the 2021-2022 Undergraduate Scholarship Program. This opportunity is designed to support independently conceived research or hands-on-projects by NSHE undergraduate students in disciplines that will help advance the missions and goals of NASA. Scholarship projects should generate measurable results or advancements in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) research that are relevant to NASA’s science and technology goals.

The NASA Office of STEM Engagement (OSTEM) has released an informal competitive solicitation to provide planning funds to develop a national-level STEM project and prepare a formal proposal to one of NASA’s Mission Directorates in 2021. The goal of this effort is to “provide funding to begin initial planning that will reduce potential implementation risk(s) of the larger proposed effort(s)”.

The Nevada Space Grant Consortium (NVSGC) announces available funding for the 2020-2021 Graduate Research Opportunity Fellowship.
