For quick reference and overview, the text of the Request for Proposals is given below. Awards are contingent on renewal of NASA funding and available resources. The KSGC invites proposals for support of space-related research capability enhancement projects by faculty at Consortium institutions. Equipment cannot be purchased with KSGC funds but may be used as cost sharing. Eligibility for renewal will be contingent upon indication of application for other sources of funding.
Preference is given to projects that include student stipends in the budget.
Investigators are strongly encouraged to develop projects related to NASA Strategic Enterprises, to collaborate with NASA Centers or missions, or to utilize NASA data. The KSGC invites applications for Graduate Fellowships and Undergraduate Scholarships in space-related fields at Consortium institutions. Both amounts must be strongly justified in the application. Fellows and Scholars must be U.S. citizens and must be accepted for admission to a program at the Consortium institution leading to a graduate or baccalaureate degree in a space-related field or teaching specialization. Preference is given to schools that waive tuition.
