ASU/NASA Space Grant

ASU Space Grant is headed by Dr. Thomas Sharp, Professor, School of Earth and Space Exploration. Space Grant supports graduate and undergraduate students in a variety of disciplines to further their educational experiences in science, engineering research, and informal education programs. Space Grant consortia have been established in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. View map browser for Space Grant Program information by state.

In an effort to involve more faculty and research projects, faculty are asked to submit an application outlining their research as it relates to Earth and Space Science. Faculty mentors may specifically request an undergraduate student to work on their project. In the event no student is requested, the Steering Committee will match the best applicant to participating faculty. Faculty may also submit applications for multiple projects and request multiple students.
Mentor applications are due by Friday, May 15th at noon.
