NASA is offering an extraordinary opportunity for college and high school students to step into the world of space exploration, science, and technology through its 2025 STEM internship program. Designed by NASA's Office of STEM Engagement, this initiative provides paid internships where students can collaborate with top scientists, engineers, and experts on groundbreaking projects. With both in-person and remote options at NASA centers, this program serves as a perfect launchpad for aspiring space enthusiasts.

This internship isn't just about gaining experience-it's about working on real NASA missions. Interns will contribute to pioneering research, technological advancements, and problem-solving initiatives that define the future of space exploration. Whether assisting in satellite development, robotics, or AI applications, interns will be immersed in cutting-edge innovation.
The program spans 10 weeks and is available in three sessions throughout the year:
To qualify, applicants must:
Be enrolled as a full-time high school or college student (part-time college students must have at least six semester hours)
Have completed at least 15 semester hours (or 23 quarter hours) before applying
While the program primarily targets students from STEM disciplines-such as engineering, astrophysics, and computer science-NASA encourages applications from students in non-STEM fields as well. The agency values interdisciplinary knowledge, ensuring that future space missions benefit from diverse expertise.
Applying for NASA's STEM internship is straightforward:
This internship not only provides technical skills but also strengthens networking opportunities with top-tier professionals in the space industry.
