The NASA Academy
|
The NASA Academy represents an immersive and integrated multidisciplinary exposure and training, for
students with various backgrounds and career aspirations of critical importance to the National aerospace
program. The academic curriculum balances opportunities for direct contact with advanced science and
engineering R&D and an awareness of the complex managerial, political, financial, social, and human issues
faced by the current and future aerospace programs.

The Student Internship Program (SIP)
|
NASA SIP is designed for students whose primary interest is in space related research. SIP is an intensive 10-week
summer research program for diverse undergraduate and graduate students interested in careers in aerospace-related
fields. SIP brings students from universities to GSFC to support ongoing research projects generally by participating
in a project that has received an award from the Director's Discretionary Fund (DDF). Students team with a Principal
Investigator (PI) at GSFC for cutting edge research in science or engineering. The students may have the opportunity
to participate in field trips to other NASA Centers, as well as to local space industry sites.

American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES)
|
The AISES Intern Program is a 10-week summer program that provides qualified AISES students with internship
opportunities to explore potential federal service with NASA and gain hands-on experience in their field of study.
The internship is a student learning work experience in which the intern is paired with a mentor from Goddard's
scientific or engineering laboratories through a match between the Lab's requirements for a project and the student's
background, academic level and interests.

Summer Institute in Engineering and Computer Application (SIECA)
|
This program provides participants with a 10 week "hands-on" work experience in various space-related scientific and
technological fields. Training in needed computer languages or other specific skills required for projects is also
provided. The primary objective of SIECA is to broaden the participants' professional perspectives through exposure
to a variety of research/application environments. Students are eligible to receive college credits from Bowie State
University for the internship. The majority of students who have participated in SIECA over the past years have been
enrolled in Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic Serving Institutions, and Tribal Colleges and
Universities.
