Please note that
the USRP program has been discontinued. Instead we are
offering internships
at the Kennedy Space Center.
The Undergraduate
Space Research Participation Program (USRP) is
designed to provide opportunities for students from throughout
Florida to become actively involved in ongoing research programs.
The program is intended to enhance student interest in graduate
study and careers in a wide variety of space-related areas.

research broadly defined to include aeronautics and astronautics,
remote sensing, atmospheric sciences, and other fundamental

space technological resources. Included within this definition
are space science, earth observing science, space life sciences,
space medicine, space policy, law, and engineering, space
facilities and applications, and space education.
Eligible
Individuals: For each proposed project the designated
PI/mentor shall be a member of the faculty of one of the FSGC-Affiliated
Universities or an industrial researcher in Florida. At the
time of application, student participants must be enrolled
