FLORIDA SPACE GRANT PROGRAM

Program Description
The Florida Space Grant Consortium sees ourselves developing stronger contacts with government, industry, and educational partners, and using these contacts and partnerships to further meet the needs of Florida’s educational system. In addition, FSGC will work closely with Kennedy Space Center (KSC), as KSC moves its focus to becoming a Spaceport Technology Center. This close interaction will afford greater opportunities for our award recipients to perform research and investigations on projects that will be utilized by real-world space-related projects and missions.


Program Goal
The Florida Space Grant Consortium will support the expansion and diversification of Florida’s space industry, through providing grants, scholarships, and fellowships to students and educators from Florida’s public and private institutes of higher education.
