About
Organization:
Garvey Spacecraft Corporation (GSC) is a small aerospace research and development company focusing on the development of advanced space technologies and launch vehicle systems. It provides engineering, technical support, project management, and hardware prototyping services to a number of private and Department of Defense (DOD) customers. GSC has leveraged its in-house capabilities by participating in several cooperative programs. The most notable of these has been the California Launch Vehicle Education Initiative (CALVEIN) with California State University, Long Beach (CSULB). This effort focuses on both hands-on hardware mentoring for future aerospace engineers as well as the low-cost development of candidate launch system technologies and services. GSC is a partner on one WIRED project. Tasks:
Project 3.3 - Space-Related University Programs:
- Provide launch opportunities for payloads developed and managed by Stanford University and other WIRED partners.
- Provide hands-on student internships and mentoring opportunities that focus on building, testing, and flying prototype launch vehicles. This effort leverages on-going research projects that are sponsored by the Air Force Research Lab and the Space and Missile Systems Center.
Experience/core competencies: systems engineering, research and development, student mentoring, avionics.
Partnerships with other relevant organizations: Stanford University, California State University Long Beach, AFRL, SMC, NASA Ames
Opportunities for collaboration:
