Career Day 2025 – Discover your path. Today’s students are the future of STEM – even if they don’t know it just yet. NASA has big plans for exploration of the Moon, Mars, and beyond; and we’ll need today’s students no matter where they are starting from. Whether you’re aiming for a four-year degree, a two-year community college program, or pursuing hands-on technical training, there is a place in space for you!
NASA is calling for bright minds at every level-engineers, technicians, designers, and innovators. From classrooms to workshops to labs, each educational path leads to exciting careers that help us reach new heights. Whether you’re interested in designing cutting-edge spacecraft, maintaining advanced technology, or leading the way in aviation, we’re here to guide you toward the right path. Together, we’ll shape the future of flight and space exploration. To help connect students to the variety of career options at NASA, the agency’s Next Gen STEM project is hosting a Career Day virtual event on Thursday, Sept. 18, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. EDT. Participants will get the chance to engage directly with NASA employees and gain access to NASA resources. Throughout the entire week, bring your classroom to engage in our interactive platform where students can take virtual tours of NASA facilities, learn about a variety of career options, or ask questions during Thursday’s Live panel sessions. Stay tuned for additional information on the Career Day panel topics and agenda as we get closer to the event date.
