Space STEM Career Resources for K-12 Teachers & Students
As part of the Your Place In Space initiative, we bring you this Space Career Resource Guide. In it, you’ll find a collection of one-page profiles that showcase a range of space careers beyond being an astronaut or rocket scientist – from aerospace engineers to space weather scientists! Each page provides a snapshot of a space professional’s job, career journey, and personal interests. Each can be used to spark students’ interest in space and broaden their concept of a space career. The content is designed to be engaging, inspiring, and best of all, easy to use.
We hope this guide is a helpful resource for you to engage youth in exploring some of the unique career opportunities that space has to offer. Discover, explore, find, and create Your Place In Space!
