Opportunity Information: Apply for NNH19ZHA001C
The National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program - Opportunities in NASA STEM FY 2020-2024 is a NASA cooperative agreement opportunity designed as a multi-year award to support NASA's broader mission through education and workforce development. It is structured around the long-running Space Grant model, where state-based Space Grant Consortia coordinate partnerships among universities, industry, nonprofits, and other organizations to expand STEM opportunities connected directly to NASA. In practical terms, the program is meant to align with NASA's Office of STEM Engagement priorities, government-wide STEM goals (often referenced as Co-STEM goals), collaborations with NASA Mission Directorates, and specific needs within each state or jurisdiction served by a consortium.
The opportunity emphasizes three big outcomes. First, it aims to help Space Grant Consortia create pathways for students and educators to contribute to NASA work in meaningful ways, not just learn about it. Second, it targets the development of a diverse and highly skilled future workforce for NASA and the broader aerospace and STEM economy, with a clear focus on broadening participation and strengthening talent pipelines. Third, it seeks to deepen public and student understanding of STEM by leveraging NASA as a real-world, high-interest context, using the agency's people, research content, and facilities to make STEM learning more engaging and relevant. A key feature is the expectation that consortia will connect participants with NASA's aeronautics, space, and science communities, and will also create opportunities for learners to participate in exploration and discovery through collaborations tied to NASA Mission Directorates.
Administratively, proposals must be submitted electronically through NASA's NSPIRES system, and registration in NSPIRES is required not only for the lead applicant but also for partners involved in the proposal, including education institutions and other organizations serving as sub-awardees or contractors. The submission must be completed by an authorized organizational representative identified in NSPIRES, and all key personnel such as principal investigators and co-investigators must also be registered. NASA strongly encourages applicants to start the NSPIRES registration and proposal setup early, since the system requires organizational profiles, role assignments, and other information that can slow down last-minute submissions. NASA also notes that updates to the announcement may be issued prior to the deadline and will appear in NSPIRES as FAQs or formal amendments, meaning applicants are responsible for checking NSPIRES regularly to stay current.
