We want interns to carry the message back to the Universities and Colleges that NASA GSFC is a highly competitive, highly desired Employer for the most meritorious students, with a diversity representative of the U.S. population. To the extent that diverse, high performing interns have a positive and engaging experiences, they will likely desire to return as an employee or serve as proponents of NASA GSFC as a best in class workplace to their friends and colleagues. The Sponsor is the single most influential person to the intern in determining their experience.
