The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers a unique and inspiring environment for Fellows to conduct world-class research with leading scientists across the United States. The diverse scientific and technological fellowships offered at NASA are one-of-a-kind educational experiences that prepare future leaders for NASA and the academic community.
NPP Fellows are selected through a competitive peer review process and execute appointments (for up to three years) that advance research across NASA’s space and Earth science missions.
The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) consists of two components—the NASA Postdoctoral Research Program and the NASA Postdoctoral Management Program. As the NPP is a resident program, Fellows are located at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute during the appointment.
