Funding Opportunities
The Iowa Space Grant Consortium (ISGC) supports researchers at affiliated universities and colleges in Iowa with expertise in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), education and outreach. The ISGC seeks researchers in engineering, Earth and space science, astronomy, and other STEM areas of interest to NASA. These faculty grants will allow award recipients to obtain the preliminary results needed to support larger proposals to NASA and other federal or non-federal funding agencies. The intent is to assist with production of NASA-related scholarship and/or intellectual properties such as patents and licenses. The ISGC encourages collaborations with NASA to support research that is aligned with the NASA Mission Directorates (MD):
