Undergraduate Student Research Project
[Students Higher Education]
[Available: Nationally]
The NASA Undergraduate Student Research Project, or USRP, offers internship opportunities for undergraduate science and engineering students at all 10 NASA centers and additional partner facilities. These mentor-guided internships provide hands-on, real-life, career-related experiences that challenge, inspire, and provide practical application that complements and expands upon students' academic education.
Three internship sessions are offered: a 15-week spring session, a 10-week summer session and a 15-week autumn session. Eligible applicants must be classified as sophomores, juniors or seniors by the start of their internship. The students must be U.S. citizens with academic majors or course concentration in engineering, mathematics, computer science, or physical and life sciences.
