Live Satellite Broadcast
and Web-Cast Conference
115 Lester Hall


The Aerospace Propulsion and Power (APP) Program will host an interactive Live Satellite Broadcast and Web-Cast Conference with universities on Nov. 16, 2000, from 1pm to 4pm (EST). the purposes of the conference are to preview an upcoming NASA Research Announcement with universities and colleges; and to provide opportunities for discussions and feedback. The APP Program has multiple projects covering a broad range of aerospace propulsion research. Each project manager will provide an overview of his/her project and potential research areas for university partnerships. ECSU will host the web cast at our site for ECSU faculty and faculty of other nearby universities.

The NASA Research Announcement will solicit proposals for research and development in the area of revolutionary and innovative aerospace propulsion concepts.

Target Announcement Release Date: December 2000
Tentative Budget: $3.0 million - $4.0 million
Number of Awards: 30-40 grants and cooperative agreements
