Curriculum Innovation Proposal (CIP) is sponsored by Ohio Space Grant Consortium. Supports innovative curriculum development in STEM higher education areas aligned with NASA priorities; could potentially include international collaboration elements.

Curriculum Innovation Proposal (CIP) | OSGC The Curriculum Innovation Proposal (CIP) is designed to support new, innovation curriculum development to support the development of STEM higher education in areas supported by NASA. Curriculum developments that that can be shared with other schools are especially preferred. All P.

I. s, faculty mentors, and students are required to be U.S. citizens. For CIP grants, NASA requires 100% in cost sharing (i.e., 1:1 match).
