The Student Internship Project (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.
