On Monday, April 21,
2008. Team members: Mark, Mike and Ken and Laurel Zeno participated in NASA's
award ceremony via NASA video teleconference. The ceremony was held at
2:00PM EST, broadcast  arranged by Susan Sawyer, NASA  Kennedy  SFC. We
were set up in 408 LaFayette Hall, UVM.  The UVM Team were one of 7
teams across the country to participate in NASA's Systems Engineering
Design Paper Competition.  All the teams and 4 NASA Centers
participated, linked with video and audio. The all received extremely
high ratings from the NASA engineers who reviewed the papers.
Unfortunately, UVM did not get 1st, 2nd, or 3rd. But, the NASA Systems
Engineering Director who spoke asked that they all participate next
year. He encouraged them to do internships and said that he hoped to see
them working with NASA or it's contractors. All reviewers agreed the
papers showed excellent knowledge and well analyzed plans. They also
were impressed with the structure of the presentation of the paper. I
presented each team member with NASA certificates sent from KSC. They
will be presenting their project at Senior Design Night, April 30, 2008
at Sheraton.
 

The Vermont Space Grant Consortium (VSGC), based in UVM's College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences (CEMS), has received funding from the Higher Education Office of NASA's Exploration Systems Missions Directorate (ESMD) to enhance three targeted components of Vermont's engineering education programs.
