Established in 1991, Space Grant is funded by NASA in order to train students and researchers in the state of Delaware in the areas of science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and geography. By means of this training, the state of Delaware aims to help in contributing to the technically literate workforce which NASA will need in the years ahead.

NASA provides stipends and tuition awards to students through Space Grant and research awards to faculty through EPSCoR. I strongly encourage students and faculty in the Consortium to consider applying for these funds.
