the development of mentor relationships between students, faculty and the 
NASA community.

Applications are evaluated based upon the students academic achievement, 
quality of proposed research project, letter of recommendation from their 
research mentor, and exhibited leadership qualities.

Applicants may carry out their research project at their home institution 
either during the academic year (award up to $2,000) or during the summer 
(award up to $4,000) or at a NASA center or industrial contractor (award up 
to $7,000). All research projects must be conducted under the general 
supervision of the applicants research mentor.
