Astronaut Scholarship Foundation 2024-25 Presentation and Lecture

Two North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University undergraduate students have been selected as 2024 Astronaut Scholars, an elite scholarship awarded annually to the nation’s most academically accomplished students pursuing STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) degrees.

Honors College students Breyana Robinson and Kennedy West will each receive up to $15,000 for eligible educational expenses and lifelong engagement with astronauts, executives, STEM researchers and innovators, Astronaut Scholar alumni and the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation (ASF), the nonprofit founded in 1984 by surviving members of the Mercury 7 crew.

Robinson and West will be publicly recognized by astronaut and former NASA administrator Charles F. Bolden during special campus presentation and lecture Wednesday, April 2.
