PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program consists of 52 state-based, university-led Space Grant Consortia in each of the 50 states plus the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Annually, each consortium receives funds to develop and implement student fellowships and scholarships programs; interdisciplinary space-related research infrastructure, education, and public service programs; and cooperative initiatives with industry, research laboratories, and state, local, and other governments. Space Grant operates at the intersection of NASA’s interest as implemented by alignment with the Mission Directorates and the state’s interests. Although it is primarily a higher education program, Space Grant programs encompass the entire length of the education pipeline, including elementary/secondary and informal education. The Ohio Space Grant Consortium is a Designated Consortium funded at a level of $760,000 for Fiscal Year 2017. B. PROGRAM GOALS OSGC has 5 goals to accomplish their mission and in support of NASA’s and the National Space Grant (SG) Program’s goals and objectives for FY2015-2018. The Strategic Plan, Vision, Mission, Goals and SMART Objectives were redefined, approved and implemented by the OSGC Executive Committee in February, 2015, and revised in April, 2016, with submission of the Augmentation Proposal.
