DEVELOP Maryland - NASA Goddard

 Good Morning,

My name is Nicole Ramberg-Pihl, a Fellow for the NASA DEVELOP National Program, headquartered at the NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA.

We are hosting virtual “About DEVELOP” webinars on Wednesday,  May 26th @ 3 pm ET and Thursday, May 27th @ 11 am ET in an effort to provide information about our capacity building program and how potential and interested candidates can apply and participate in the program.

We have 11 U.S. locations at NASA centers and regional collegiate locations. The goal of our virtual webinars is to not only provide program information to potential candidates, but to also generate discussion with prospective applicants outside of virtual platforms, such as Handshake and social media. We would like to learn more about our potential future candidates and provide them with the resources they need to be to successfully apply to NASA DEVELOP.

I have attached our flyer with specific information about our webinars and how to virtually join the presentation.

The NASA DEVELOP National Program addresses environmental and public policy issues through interdisciplinary research projects that apply the lens of NASA Earth observations to community concerns around the globe. Bridging the gap between NASA Earth science and society, DEVELOP builds capacity in both participants and partner organizations to better prepare them to address the challenges that face our society and future generations. Teams of DEVELOP participants collaborate with decision makers to conduct rapid 10 week feasibility projects that highlight relevant applications of Earth observing missions, cultivate advanced skills, and increase understanding of NASA Earth science data and technology.

The application for our fall 2021 term is currently open through June 25th with the fall term starting on September 13th. Please note due to the ongoing pandemic, the fall 2021 term will be conducted virtually. As such, all accepted participants must work remotely from within the United States. 

Please let me know if I can answer additional questions or concerns. Thank you for your time!

Best regards,

Nicole Ramberg-Pihl
