NASA Guam EPSCoR and NASA Guam Space Grant will be holding an information session at 3 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 10 to notify the island community of funding opportunities from the national space agency that support research in our region.
These opportunities are aligned with NASA's Science Mission Directorate and cover a broad range of research areas, such as astronomy, physical science, oceanography, biology, computer science and technology, and engineering, among others.
Project funding ranges from one to three years, with a research budget of up to $750,000. Fellowship and internship opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students will also be shared.
Researchers and faculty in higher education are encouraged to attend this virtual session. Interested individuals may sign up for the virtual session at nasaguamopps.eventbrite.com. A Zoom link to the session will be available upon confirmation of your registration.

About NASA Guam EPSCoR
The Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research, or EPSCoR, creates partnerships with government, higher education, and industry that are designed to affect lasting improvements in a state or region’s infrastructure, research, and development capacity. The NASA EPSCoR program focuses on jurisdictions that have not participated equitably in competitive aerospace and aerospace-related research activities. NASA Guam EPSCoR is housed within UOG and is focused on research that aligns with NASA missions and/or technologies and is relevant to Guam and the region.
