Request for Proposals
Proposals are no longer being accepted.
Awards will be announced by April 15, 2009.

Summary

The Higher Education Course Development Program is designed to provide funding to initiate interdisciplinary and/or distance learning courses. These courses will be focused on equipping the future science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workforce to gain a better understanding of complex aero/space issues.

NC Space Grant anticipates making 3 to 6 awards with the maximum individual award of $10,000 for a period of performance of 12 months (March 15, 2009 – March 14, 2010, contingent upon NC Space Grant’s receipt of NASA funding). Proposing institutions are required to provide 100% cost matching (1:1) using non-federal funds. In other words, if $10,000 is requested from NC Space Grant, then $10,000 must be provided as match.

Eligibility

Competition is open to individuals at active NC Space Grant university member institutions. Individuals must be qualified to serve as a principal investigator at their respective institution and be permanent U.S. citizens. Submission is limited to one proposal per investigator.

NC Space Grant encourages proposals from females, members of underrepresented minority groups, or persons with disabilities.
