I always talk about the JPL tour and show photos. I like students to know what it LOOKS like to be an engineer. Many students are encouraged to go into engineering without really knowing what engineers actually do. The tours are invaluable to show students this glimpse!
Many people helped with the review of the 2023 NITARP teams' proposals. Thanks to you all! People at IPAC who helped included:
Many NITARP alumni helped us out with reviewing the NITARP 2022 proposals. Scientists who helped include Chris Gelino, Mike Kuhn, and Julian van Eyken. Thanks to all!

Many NITARP alumni helped us out with reviewing the NITARP 2019 proposals! Scientists who helped include Tiffany Meshkat, Marja Seidel, Sergio Fajardo-Acosta, Mike Werner, and Julian van Eyken. Thanks to all!
Participating in NITARP has made me more confident about teaching Astronomy and communicating to students about how archive Astronomy research is done. They are surprised to learn that even THEY could do Astronomy research. My students and I had such a experience (they LOVED the JPL tour) and I'd love to participate again because I have some new students that I think would love this program!
