New Mexico Space Grant Consortium (NMSGC) awarded 25 Space Grant Scholarships and Fellowships to students across higher education institutions in New Mexico for the Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 semesters. Among the scholars are 13 NMSU graduate and undergraduate students. The Space Grant (SG) scholarships and fellowships are highly competitive and based on proposed research projects, their alignment to NASA, faculty letter of recommendation, and GPA. Space Grant Scholars must report their academic activity, publications and conferences attended. They are also required to present their research findings at the annual SG student colloquium and to complete community service such as mentoring peers, volunteering at STEM events, participating in K-12 opportunities to share their knowledge.
