We are proud to announce our new Space Grant Graduate Student Fellows for 2025-2026! These students have worked hard to qualify for Space Grant support, and we are excited to see what they will do in the year to come. Welcome new Grad Fellows!
Fellowships provide stipends of $36,000 to highly qualified graduate students in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics who are currently attending a DESGC member institution. Stipends are for one full year, and all recipients of these awards must be US Citizens.
Applications for 2026-27 DESGC Graduate Fellowships will open this fall on NASA STEM Gateway at https://stemgateway.nasa.gov/s/
