Europa ICONS: A STEM Internship for Undergraduate Students
The Europa ICONS program will pair Europa Clipper science team members with undergraduate students for a 10-week research experience during which the students will perform original scientific research.
Internships may be in person at a Europa Clipper science team member’s institution, virtual, or hybrid, depending on the research project and individual needs of the intern and mentor.
Mentors and interns will convene the week of July 28, 2025 for a mini conference at the Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, MD to build relationships and to present the work completed over the summer.
Interns will get a $12,000 stipend; travel costs to APL will be paid for by NASA. For in-person interns, NASA will pay up to $1,000 for relocation and provide a housing stipend.
Applications are due February 28, 2025.
