NASA initiated the National Space Grant College and Fellowship Project, also known as Space Grant, in 1989.
Space Grant is a national network of colleges and universities. These institutions are working to expand
opportunities for Americans to understand and participate in NASA’s aeronautics and space projects by
supporting and enhancing science and engineering education, research and public outreach efforts.

awards the scholarship.
