About this award
The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley received a cooperative agreement award valued at $1.19M under the Remote-Sensing and Analytics for Integrating Science Education with NASA SMD to Strengthen Student Research Capacity at Minority-Serving Institutions (RAISE) program (23-MCA-0006). The award, issued on October 1, 2023, with completion targeted for September 30, 2026, supports the university's efforts to integrate remote-sensing technology and analytics into science education while strengthening research capacity among student populations at minority-serving institutions. As a Hispanic-Serving Institution in South Texas, UTRGV is well-positioned to advance NASA's Science Mission Directorate goals by developing educational initiatives and research training programs that leverage remote-sensing capabilities to engage underrepresented student populations in STEM fields.
This cooperative agreement was not issued under a set-aside designation, indicating UTRGV's competitive selection through open competition. The award is funded through NASA's Science Mission Directorate and will be performed at the university's campus in Edinburg, Texas. UTRGV, a child entity of the University of Texas System, brings extensive experience in federal research partnerships and educational programs, having previously secured numerous NSF and NASA grants supporting groundbreaking research in areas such as gravitational wave astronomy and advanced technologies. Through this award, the university will contribute to broadening participation in space science research and education while building sustainable research capacity at minority-serving institutions.
