Hi all,
Does anyone know of any research opportunities for out-of-state students during the spring 2014 term? I am a senior physics major, graduating this semester (early). I have applied to many NASA programs through it's OSSI application, and the DOE SULI programs, but did not get in. I realize this is late, but I'm scrambling.


Thank you
