NASA Missouri Space Grant Consortium

Education, Research and Outreach in support of NASA’s mission

Welcome to the NASA Missouri Space Grant Consortium. The mission of the Consortium, one of NASA’s National Space Grant Organization consisting of 52 jurisdictions, is to maintain and enhance, through the State’s universities, corporate partners, government labs, and non-profit organizations, the nation’s workforce capabilities in STEM-related science, engineering, and technology; and to aid in the dissemination of information provided by NASA to students, faculty, researchers, and the general public. Missouri Space Grant strives to support students through internships, fellowships, and provide support for design teams on their projects.

To accomplish its mission, the Consortium strives to inspire, motivate, recruit, educate, and train students at all academic levels to help meet Missouri’s and NASA’s need for skilled, knowledgeable, diverse, and high-performing professional scientists, engineers, technologists, and educators in the fields of interest to NASA.

Make use of the numerous opportunities offered by Missouri Space Grant

Higher education and K12 students, teachers, and outreach organizations who have interests in STEM-related projects are welcome and encouraged to become partners of Missouri Space Grant.
