NASA Space Grant is a nationwide program funded by NASA. It is designed to develop the young minds of STEM graduate and undergraduate students into thinking beyond the classroom by actively performing NASA related research alongside a faculty mentor. Our program at Northern Arizona University provides 20 undergraduate internships to exceptional students interested in promoting the understanding of space-related research to the public. We are located in the Department of Astronomy and Planetary Science. The Northern Arizona University Space Grant Program is a part of the statewide Arizona Space Grant Consortium.
