Careers - NASA
I got a Master degree in Public Administration because my goal was to end up working for NASA. And I did so, on my second attempt. I started working for NASA’s Logistics Management Division, and served as Deputy Director. Working at NASA is something very special. I find myself surrounded by a group of professional individuals, working in a complete camaraderie environment.

About STEM Engagement at NASA - NASA
Create unique opportunities for a diverse set of students to contribute to NASA’s work in exploration and discovery.

 

Build a diverse future STEM workforce by engaging students in authentic learning experiences with NASA’s people, content and facilities.

 

Attract diverse groups of students to STEM through learning opportunities that spark interest and provide connections to NASA’s mission and work.

 

NASA Strategy for STEM Engagement
The 2023 NASA Strategic Plan Objective 4.3 Build the Next Generation of Explorers, establishes the agency priority on the importance of engaging students to become the diverse STEM workforce of the future. The NASA Strategy for STEM Engagement provides the framework to achieve this objective and describes the cross-cutting design principles foundational for this work. It guides the Agency’s work to benefit students, educators, and educational institutions, and to build the next generation of explorers with the technical skills needed to continue pursuing NASA’s mission.

NASA STEM Impacts and Benefits

A Culture of Evidence
NASA has long held a culture of using evidence to inform its endeavors. As an Agency at the cutting edge of exploration, scientific discovery, and technological development, NASA believes that frequently and thoroughly examining and evaluating its programs, missions, and projects leads to future success. NASA STEM Engagement is committed to strong evidence-building practices, and the Office of STEM Engagement performance assessment and evaluation strategy with three key components – performance and evaluation activities and a learning agenda – is one critical tool in systematic evidence-building used to identify the priorities we believe will help build the next generation of explorers.

Partnering With NASA STEM Engagement

NASA has a rich history of collaborating across the STEM ecosystem to foster innovative student experiences that leverage mission, people, and facilities. 
NASA conducts strategic partnerships with a wide range of external STEM engagement stakeholder organizations. These unfunded collaborators gain access to NASA mission data and imagery, subject matter expertise in scientific and technical disciplines connected to our Mission, and support with curation of NASA education resources, products, and materials. Through these efforts, we coordinate with industry, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations to support development of high-quality opportunities for both youth outside of the classroom and students in pre-kindergarten through graduate school.
