The Wyoming NASA Space Grant Consortium offers Faculty Education Enhancement Grants to help faculty at the University of Wyoming and Wyoming community colleges develop new college-level courses or curricula, or revise existing courses, curricula, and STEM education activities. The program aims to bring current research and education findings into teaching. Early-career faculty are especially encouraged to apply.
New course proposals must align with the consortium’s programmatic objectives. Interdisciplinary courses and activities are strongly encouraged, and interdisciplinary proposals receive priority. Projects should have goals aligned with the NASA National Space Grant and the strategic missions of one or more NASA Mission Directorates. Course and curriculum projects are expected to produce a new course offering or new curricular material.
