NASA Accepting Applications From 'Inspired' High School Students

WASHINGTON -- U.S. high school students are invited to participate in NASA's
Interdisciplinary National Science Program Incorporating Research
Experience, or INSPIRE, through an online learning community. INSPIRE is
designed to encourage students in ninth through 12th grades to pursue
careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

Applications are being accepted through June 30. NASA will make selections
for the program in September. The selected students and their parents will
participate in an online learning community with opportunities to interact
with peers, NASA engineers and scientists. The online community also
provides appropriate grade level educational activities, discussion boards
and chat rooms for participants to gain exposure to careers and
opportunities available at NASA.

Students selected for the program also will have the option to compete for
unique grade-appropriate experiences during the summer of 2012 at NASA
facilities and participating universities. The summer experience provides
students with a hands-on opportunity to investigate education and careers in
the STEM disciplines.

INSPIRE is part of NASA's education strategy to attract and retain students
in the STEM disciplines critical to NASA's missions. For more information
