Hawai'i Space Grant Consortium

HSGC is a wide-ranging community educational program supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) that promotes studies in scientific and technical fields related to space. These fields are broad and include astronomy, biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, geology, mathematics, meteorology, oceanography, physics, remote sensing, and space science. Chartered under the NASA National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program, the Hawai‘i Space Grant Consortium began its activities in the fall of 1990. NASA National Space Grant College and Fellowship programs are dedicated to the development and support of future scientists and engineers. Participation in Space Grant programs provides new opportunities for our full-time UH-system students to explore space- and aeronautical-related fields. Expanded opportunities for space education through the efforts of the Hawai‘i Space Grant Consortium also extend to teachers of students in kindergarten through the twelfth grade.
