ND Space Grant Consortium

NASA Internships

NASA

NASA internships allow college students of all majors the opportunity to complete a research project at any of the NASA centers. The North Dakota Space Grant Consortium is able to fully fund up to 9 North Dakota students each year, if NASA selects you as an intern. All interested students should apply directly on NASA's internship application page between October 1st and March 5th. We advise students to not wait until the deadline to apply, as NASA begins making offers prior to the March deadline. To be considered for NDSGC funding, students must complete our Submittable application by February 1st. NASA internships span 10 weeks in the summer and 16 weeks in the fall/spring semesters. Part-time and/or virtual positions may be available. The stipend values listed below reflect in-person appointments and have $500 travel funding already included. Students who conduct a virtual internship will not receive the travel support. Students are eligible to receive NDSGC internship support only once per degree program (i.e. graduate students may reapply, even if they were awarded funding as an undergraduate). Students can pursue additional internships independently of the NDSGC. Both of the two-step processes outlined in the buttons below must be completed by their respective application deadlines to be considered for NDSGC internship funding. Applying for NDSGC funding does not guarantee you an internship.

Funding

Eligibility

How to Apply

Contact the NDSGC early in your application process so we may be involved in the matching process. To be eligible to receive NDSGC funding for NASA internships, your application must be submitted to NASA by February 1st. Contact Marissa Saad with questions.

Step 1: Apply with NASA

Step 2: Apply with NDSGC

  1. Create an account with NASA and apply between October 1st and March 5th; you can apply to internship positions (up to 15) using your one account
  2. Create an NDSGC Submittable account and apply for NDSGC funding between October 1st and February 1st; you will be able to inform us of your top choices in a fillable table
    • While you wait, periodically check your NASA application and see if your top choices have been filled; if they have, you can request to edit your Submittable application and keep your top choices up-to-date
    • If you are contacted by NASA or receive an internship independently from our efforts, please let us know so we can open another potential seat to another North Dakota student
