Description
**About CaSGC**
The California Space Grant Consortium (CaSGC) is California’s implementation arm of NASA’s National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program. It meets program objectives through a wide variety of aerospace-related activities that target pre-college to university level education and learning, research, workforce development, and public outreach.
**CaSGC Vision**
To inspire and educate the next generation of aerospace scientists, engineers, and managers.
**CaSGC Mission**
To serve as a crosscutting and integration agent in California to bring the aerospace-related content, technical expertise, and application environment of NASA’s scientific and technical Enterprises to the educational community and the general public.
**CaSGC Objectives**
To develop and maintain a network of institutions of higher education throughout California with interests and capabilities in aerospace science, engineering, and technology.
To recruit and train aerospace professionals, especially women and underrepresented minorities, for careers in aerospace science and engineering. This is accomplished through the provision of scholarships, fellowships, and training internships within the industry, government, and academic sectors. A primary focus of this effort is student – mentor projects which provide an effective way to:
- Translate space-related research results for education and public use;
- Train and retrain the aerospace workforce;
- Build education and research infrastructure;
- Provide undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships;
- Outreach to underrepresented groups (women & minorities).
To promote a strong science, mathematics, and engineering education base from elementary through university levels.
