The Virginia Space Grant Consortium (VSGC) is offering a 2013-2014 Scholarship and Fellowship Program.  Each academic year the VSGC awards substantial sholarships and fellowships to students attending Virginia Space Grant member institutions and majoring in a science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) field.

Two programs provide scholarships to students actively engaged in a research project with a faculty member and they are as follows:

1. The Undergraduate STEM Research Scholarship Program -

This program provides a one-year scholarship of up to $8,500 to undergraduate students.


2. The Graduate STEM Research Fellowship Program -

This program provides $5,000 in support to graduate students. The Graduate Fellowship is add-on support for students and is renewable for one year.

Research proposals from students majoring in any STEM field and working on a project that supports NASA's mission are welcomed.  VSGC can assist students and faculty in identifying appropriate research projects.  Please see the vSCG website for details at:  http://www.vsgc.odu.edu/


The STEM Bridge Scholarship Program -

This program provides $1,000 renewable awards to sophomore students from any federally recognized minority group enrolled full-time in a program of study in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) at one of the five Virginia Space Grant member universities.
