California colleges and universities have the opportunity to apply for NASA Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD) funds to support a senior design project for the 2011-2012 Academic Year.

It is anticipated that most requests will be in the range of $5,000 or less. Universities are not required to be affiliates of the California Space Grant Consortium to apply.

Projects must be from the ESMD Senior Design Project List
