Lillian Goettler Scholarship

The NDSGC has established the prestigious Lillian Goettler Space Grant Award for a female student at North Dakota State University. Applicants will ideally be involved in a research project of NASA relevance. Undergraduate and graduate students who meet the criteria below are encouraged to apply. This $2500 award honors the ideals of scholarship as exemplified by Dr. Lillian Goettler. Dr. Goettler, a former faculty member in Mechanical Engineering at NDSU, set a standard for women in her field. Dr. Goettler pursued her goals by earning a Ph.D. in 1974 and working overseas before joining the faculty at NDSU in 1978. Another important piece of Dr. Goettler's legacy was her role as a founding member of Expanding Your Horizons, a program for junior high school girls to explore the fields of science and math.

Applicants must meet the following criteria:

  • Female
  • Minimum 3.5 GPA
  • American Citizen
  • Student majoring in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics) field at North Dakota State University
  • Application Guidance

Annual Due Date: February 15th

NDSU students should contact Nancy Rossland and Scott Pryor for application information. For additional information, please contact Marissa Saad.
