High School Students and Teachers Invited to Participate in Unique NSF-Funded Research Experiences

Did you know that the National Science Foundation (NSF) funds startups and small businesses to perform economically and socially impactful, cutting-edge research and technology translation? NSF is currently seeking high school students, undergraduates, K-12 teachers and community college instructors interested in participating in both summer and year-long research opportunities with small businesses and startups. Grants up to $6,000 for high school students and $10,000 for K-12 teachers are available through NSF's Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) Programs. Students and teachers from underrepresented groups in science and engineering (i.e. women, Hispanics, African-American, Native Americans, Hawaii Natives, Alaska Natives and people with disabilities) are highly encouraged to participate.
