AI Summary
NASA is inviting proposals for partnership agreements with up to four U.S.-based higher education institutions to enhance STEM education through collaborative capstone projects. This initiative aims to provide undergraduate and graduate students with real-world research experiences, preparing them for complex STEM career pathways. Eligible students must be enrolled in an accredited institution, be U.S. citizens or hold valid student visas, and comply with all relevant laws regarding technology export. The proposal process is outlined in the Announcement for Proposals (AFP), which details the responsibilities of both NASA and the partnering institutions. Selected partners will enter into a non-reimbursable Space Act Agreement, facilitating collaboration
NASA is seeking to partner with up to four (4) US based higher education institutions on a non-reimbursable (no exchange of funds) basis to better prepare cross-disciplinary undergraduate and graduate students for increasingly complex and challenging STEM career pathways by providing real-world collaborative research experiences. Proposals from non-U.S. entities will not be considered. A student is deemed as eligible if during the time of the proposed effort, they, (1) are enrolled in an accredited institution of higher learning, (2) are a U.S. Citizen or have a valid student visa, and (3) are in compliance with all local, state, and U.S. Government laws and regulations regarding the sale and export of technology. This Announcement for Proposals (AFP) outlines the process for submitting a proposal to become a partner (Partner) with NASA for this collaborative effort, as well as the expected NASA and partner responsibilities. Capstone projects are designed to allow students to explore independent research and demonstrate mastery of subject matter knowledge. Consistent with university requirements, students will either earn college credit for their participation in the capstone or the capstone will otherwise contribute to their academic coursework. NASA, through the Office of Technology, Policy, and Science (OTPS), will coordinate with university faculty to support the identification of relevant areas of research, issues, or problems that the student team can use to develop specific studies. This AFPP is anticipated to result in the establishment of a non-reimbursable Space Act Agreement for each selected Partner that will define the full roles and responsibilities of NASA and the proposing organization(s) in a form similar to the model agreement shown in Exhibit A attached hereto (the Model Agreement) (for more information on Space Act Agreements, please see https://www.nasa.gov/partnerships.html).
