Archive of Past NASA Earth and Space Science Fellowship (NESSF) Selections

The NESSF program is no longer accepting new proposals. This program was replaced by the Future Investigators in NASA Earth and Space Science and Technology (FINESST) program element of ROSES, our omnibus research solicitation. Proposals for the FINESST are due each year in February. To find the current FINESST call for proposals go to this year’s ROSES. You will find a link to the top level ROSES here and you may go directly to the list of all of the calls for proposals in ROSES, including FINESST, by pointing by your browser to https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2022table3. In future years just update the year e.g., https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2023table3 https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2024table3, and so on.
