ACCESS Program
(Achieving competence in Computing, Engineering, and Space Science)
This 10-week paid internship program is offered at NASA Centers around the United States. It is designed for undergraduate and graduate students with disabilities who have strong backgrounds in science and a desire to pursue technical careers. Students work with scientists and engineers in an area compatible with their skills and interests. This is a chance to apply academic skills in the workplace and obtain practical professional experiences. More information can be obtained at http://ehrweb.aaas.org/entrypoint/more.html.

LARSS Program
(Langley Aerospace Research Summer Scholars)
The main objectives of the LARSS program are to encourage high-caliber college students to both pursue and earn graduate degrees and to enhance their interest in aerospace research by exposing them to the professional research resources and facilities of Langley Research Center. Through these objectives, the LARSS program hopes to further education excellence and provide students with the opportunity to study in their fields of interest. Go to http://edu.larc.nasa.gov/larss/ for more information.

Michael P. Anderson Summer Outreach Program
The Michael P. Anderson Summer Outreach Program is a non-residential, day program designed to expose students to different areas of engineering & science through experimentation in the areas of civil, electrical & mechanical engineering. Students compete for trophies and awards at the conclusion of each activity.

Eligibility Requirements include students completing 9th, 10th or 11th grade by Spring 2006 and have a strong interest in science, math & technology.

Activities include: Assembly /Disassembly, Bridge Building, Electronic Projects, Land Measurements, Mathematics, Optics, Robotics, Solar Energy, Web Page Design, and Wireless Communication.

MISE Program
(Minorities in Science and Engineering)
Oakwood College, Alabama A&M University, and the University of Alabama Huntsville
This program is designed to increase the number of scholastically well-suited, highly-qualified, diverse students achieving degrees in engineering, mathematics, science, or related undergraduate degrees. Through a support system from each participating university, students are allowed to maximize their ability to achieve and maintain a record of academic excellence during their undergraduate years.
The application process for 2007 is now OPEN.
Applications are being accepted for the 2007 Summer Internship Program.

NACME
(National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering)
The nation's largest source of scholarships for minorities in engineering, NACME provide highly qualified individuals with opportunities to the mathematics, science and engineering related fields of study through scholarships and internships. http://www.nacme.org

PSTI
(Pre-Service Teacher Institute)
The Pre-Service Teacher Institute is an intensive, two-week summer residential session for college students who are preparing to teach in an elementary or middle school from diverse backgrounds.

The program is designed to increase participants' skills in teaching mathematics and science while incorporating technology into the curriculum. This is achieved through the development of a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) theme. Participants develop a group lesson that they teach to children from a local school, and also teach in an elementary/middle school when they return home.
The application process for 2006 is now closed.
Applications for the 2006 Pre-Service Teacher Institute are no longer being accepted

SPACE Program
(Strategic Preparedness Advancing Careers in Engineering/Science)
Morehouse College
This is a scholarship program made possible by a grant from NASA Headquarters Code E. The primary goal of the program is to provide high-achieving students an opportunity to pursue undergraduate studies in engineering, math, and the physical sciences. Students selected for the program will receive scholarship awards to supplement the cost of their undergraduate education at Morehouse. MSFC sponsors summer research opportunities and mentors for this scholars program.

WISE Program
(Women in Science and Engineering)
Spelman College
This scholars program is funded by NASA Headquarters Code E. The WISE scholars program provides scientifically-talented students, particularly those from groups underrepresented in the scientific and technical workforce, with an opportunity to pursue undergraduate studies in science and engineering. MSFC sponsors summer research opportunities and mentors for this scholars program.

NOTE: To qualify for the above scholar programs, prospective students are required to meet the criteria required by each individual program:
