Vigdor Teplitz (301) 286-9690
Madeline Barron (301) 286-3290
Eligibility: Full time undergraduate or graduate student attending
one of the District’s universities or colleges. Selection based upon academic
achievement, background/skills and academic objectives, and their “fit”
for the particular assignments they chose. Must be US citizen or permanent resident
(as of May of the program year).
Description: The DC Space Grant Consortium (DCSGC) program is a NASA
fall semester paid internship that matches students with NASA mentors at both
NASA Headquarters, and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Members of underrepresented
and/or undeserved groups are encouraged to apply. Students team with a principal
Investigator (PI) at GSFC for research in science or engineering. Students must
work between 15-20 hours per week and submit monthly evaluation forms. The program
is funded through NASA on a year to year basis, so announcements for the present
year competition cannot be made until funding is available. If funding is available,
the DCSGC will announce it on its web page in early spring. Students with disabilities
are provided reasonable accommodation services.
Duration: Varies
Dates: Starts approximately mid August and concludes in mid December.
Application Deadline: Please check with a point of contact for current
year information.
