Other Alumni Program SupportedOpportunities
Through the support of our Alumni, we have been able to give our students an opportunity to participate in the NASA reduced gravity program. More information can be found below.
Financial sponsors of the student teams are: The AEM Richard and Shirely DeLeo Scholarship & Engineering Fund; the AEM Alumni Program Support Fund; The Minnesota Space Grant Consortium; and the University Undergraduate Research Opportunities.
