Hello,

My name is Debbie Murray and I am the Program Coordinator for the NASA Langley 
Aerospace Research Summer Scholars (LARSS) Program.  The NASA LARSS Program is 
managed in partnership with NASA, the National Institute of Aerospace and the 
Virginia Space Grant Consortium.

The LARSS Program is one of NASA's most prestigious and successful student 
research programs, having recently ranked among the top ten best internships in 
the nation. Designed to bridge the gap between academic concepts and real-world 
experience, LARSS creates opportunities for students to come to NASA Langley 
Research Center (LaRC) in Hampton, Virginia to conduct robust research and work 
on exciting projects while working side-by-side with NASA's finest scientists 
and engineers.

LARSS is a year-round (3 sessions) paid, research internship program for 
undergraduate and graduate students that provides real research experiences in 
the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) as well 
as in business, communication, marketing, and other areas that support NASA's 
mission. Most majors accepted! The LARSS program hosts over 200 interns 
annually.
I would like to ask that you share our information with your faculty and 
students so that they may have an opportunity to apply.  The application is now 
up for our 2013 summer session with a deadline of Feb. 1, 2013.
I have attached our recruitment flyer, which provides many of the program 
specifics.  The website is http://www.nianet.org/larss.  As indicated, the 
program is mostly STEM based with opportunities for special project areas in 
non-STEM disciplines as well.
We invite all eligible students to apply and encourage female students, 
under-represented minorities, college students with disabilities, military 
veterans, first-generation college students, and students from 
economically-disadvantaged backgrounds to apply.
Eligibility requirements include:
US Citizenship
Full-time status at an accredited US college or university
Classification as a rising undergraduate junior, senior, or graduate student 
(Masters or doctoral level), by the start of the summer session
Cumulative 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale
We also have a LARSS Bridge component, which allows early application for 
rising high school seniors, undergraduate freshmen and sophomores to apply if 
they have a 3.5 GPA and previous NASA program experience.  This experience can 
come from many areas including but not limited to any NASA OSSI-SOLAR Program, 
INSPIRE, SHARPE, VASTS, CHROME, NASA Governor's School, Space Camp, USRP, 
ACCESS, MUST, NASA Robotics, NASA Volunteer Services, and any documented time 
worked on a NASA grant/contract/cooperative agreement with a faculty member 
that equates to a minimum of 40 hours.
I look forward to hearing from you and receiving applications from your 
students.  Please let me know if you have any questions.  My contact info is 
below.  My Program Assistant is Sarah Pauls 
<Sarah.E.Pauls@xxxxxxxx<mailto:Sarah.E.Pauls@xxxxxxxx>>.  Please cc her on any 
messages so that one of us may respond in a timely manner.
Regards,
Debbie Murray
