About Scholarship

The UNSGC Faculty Research Seed Funding Award Opportunity will only accept proposals from new and early career faculty (assistant professor level or recently promoted associate professor level) at Utah NASA Space Grant Consortium-affiliated institutions. The intent of the program is to help develop core expertise and infrastructure to enable early career investigators to build a sustainable capability in the state which supports NASA's Mission Directorates. UNSGC encourages researchers to focus their research toward NASA priorities while building ties with NASA Centers and aerospace contractors. Projects that emphasize partnerships with other universities, industry, state and local government, and that include women and underrepresented minorities are particularly encouraged. Preference will be given to faculty who have not received Space Grant seed funding awards in the past. Faculty who have received funding in the past four years (2020-2024) are not eligible to apply to this seed grant announcement. The proposal shall specify alignment with one of the NASA Mission Directorate needs. Each award will begin on May 18, 2025 and conclude on May 17, 2026. The complete list of the eligible institutions are on the award's website. The information about the proposal inclusions and format are also available. Please visit the award's website or contact the Utah NASA Space Grant Consortium for more information.
