In the morning session of Tuesday's presentations, representatives from ECSU spoke on building partnerships with the National Aerospace and Aeronautics Agency (NASA) to faculty and students. These speakers highlighted past partnerships and research projects while exploring future opportunities available.

The afternoon session was presented by Dr. Linda Hayden (MCS) and Dr. Steve Hale, of the University of New Hampshire and highlighted projects undertaken in partnership between an HWCU and an HBCU. Several successful projects such as Watershed Watch and NASA Remote Sensing Explorers were presented along with what made the partnerships work. One of the student participants of Watershed Watch, Ryan Lawrence, also presented his experiences during the two-week summer program along with mentors from ECSU.
