CRESST II: Center for Research and Exploration in Space Science and Technology II (w/ NASA Goddard)
The Center for Research and Exploration in Space Science and Technology II (CRESST II) is a collaboration between NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) and the University of Maryland, College Park; University of Maryland, Baltimore County; Catholic University of America; Howard University; and Southeastern Universities Research Association.
The overall goal of CRESST II is to support and enhance research and technology in the space sciences in support of NASA's strategic science mission objectives.
CRESST II employs, through its partner institutions, approximately one hundred scientists who work on a wide range of space science projects in the GSFC Divisions of Astrophysics Science and Solar System Exploration. CRESST II scientists work directly with NASA scientists to support operating missions, conduct scientific research, develop instruments, and design future missions. CRESST II provides the unique opportunity to be university research faculty working at a major NASA Center.
CRESST II also provides opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to become involved in scientific research and instrument development at GSFC. Undergraduate and graduate students at the partner institutions can take advantage of research opportunities during the academic year. CRESST II operates a summer program that brings in students for 10-week research internships. Moreover, graduate students at the partner institutions can work on their Ph.D. research at GSFC.
