The soft deadline to enroll in the Summer 2022 program is May 31st, 2021. We will be accepting late submissions, but only up to a week after the deadline.
The NASA VIPS program is face to face in June 2022. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the varying availability of each student, we will hold most of our meetings virtually. Despite this, we tentatively plan to have one or two in-person meetings with a NASA HUNCH mentor over the course of the summer.
The NASA Virtual Internship Program is a project-based, student-centric learning experience. As such, we plan to have teams of 2-3 students per team, each with their own student coaches to guide them as they progress through their projects over the course of the summer. These student coaches are past national finalists and semifinalists of the NASA HUNCH Design & Prototype competition; they have their own experience with the projects, and are very enthusiastic to help your student delve into the world of S.T.E.M.
