Angeli Sandoval: New Opportunity from Far Away Worlds

 

This week NYSG is highlighting one of our New York Space Grant (NYSG) Women in STEM (WiS) Fellowship recipients, Angeli Sandoval. Angeli is an astrophysics master’s student at the CUNY Graduate Center in New York City. Angeli was awarded the WiS Fellowship, which is competitively awarded up to $5,000 in research fellowship(s) to students in STEM working on undergraduate or graduate research projects. The intent of this fellowship is to support students working on NASA-related projects in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
