Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I have to participate in all four design teams?

    No, we only allow members to participate in one design team. However, it is completely normal to be interested in a few. You can rank which design team(s) you prefer when you apply.

  • Where can I find you once I'm on campus?

    Find us at CEED O-Show, Gobblerfest, or at one of our interest meetings. Fill out our interest form to receive updates on where to find us!

  • Do I need to be a U.S. citizen?

    For Juvo, Infinitum, and Terra, you do not need to be a U.S. citizen to apply and participate. However, NASA requires all Astra participants to be U.S. citizens or permanent residents with green cards.

  • What is the recruiting process like?

    Students fill out an application which asks for general information and two short free-response questions. Applicants may be invited to an individual and group interview.

  • What is the time commitment like?

    Time commitment varies by design team. For Astra and Terra, expect to spend at least 5-10 hours per week (higher closer to deadlines). Juvo and Infinitum usually have smaller time commitments.

  • What are the challenges for each design team?

    The selected challenge is up to the team once recruited, which changes every year.
