The NASA Iowa Space Grant Consortium (ISGC) is conducting a competition to award two grants of $10,000 each for Academic Projects that support research aligning with any of the five NASA Mission Directorates (MD). The MDs include: Aeronautics Research (ARMD), Exploration Systems Development (ESDMD), Science (SMD), Space Operations (SOMD), and Space Technology (STMD). Proposed projects must align with the MD scientific pursuits and NASA’s mission/strategies at ISGC Academic Affiliate campuses. As our base programs are limited to the four core institutions, the ISGC has created this opportunity for the non-core Academic Affiliates. This allows all our academic institutions to participate in mission directorate NASA research.
