Education & Outreach

The National Space Club sponsors the following programs in support of its educational objectives:

The Dr. Robert H. Goddard Scholarship

The National Space Club offers a major scholarship each year to encourage study in the field of engineering and science. The scholarship, in the amount of $10,000, is awarded to a U.S. citizen in at least the junior year of an accredited university, who, in the judgment of the award committee, shows the greatest interest and aptitude. For information on how to apply, please see the Dr. Robert H. Goddard Scholarship page.
