The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Office of Education is offering the Tribal Colleges and Universities Project (TCUP) grant. This grant is for enhancing educational and research opportunities specifically for tribal colleges and universities. The primary purpose is to increase the participation of TCU graduates in NASA and the broader Nation’s STEM workforce. TCUP is a comprehensive STEM educational and mentoring program. NASA aims to achieve these goals through various activities, including capacity building, infrastructure development, internships, fellowships, research experiences, outreach, and information exchange. Up to eight awards are anticipated, each potentially providing $1.4 million annually over a three-year period.
