Research projects designed by Ohio University students compete to travel to the International Space Station (ISS) and back as part of the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program.
If you're interested in space, join OHIO's Student Spaceflight Experiment this fall.
Dr. Sarah Wyatt invites students from all majors — English to engineering, art to astrophysics and more — to join OHIO's team in the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program's Mission 19 to the ISS. "You don't need any experience to become part of this," Wyatt emphasized.
For more information on how to participate, contact Sarah Wyatt at wyatts@ohio.edu .
Students can get 2 credits for the time they spend learning about how to design something small enough to send to space. Register for PBIO 2900 Special Topics – Student Spaceflight Experimentor PBIO 4941 003 Undergraduate Research and Presentationtaught by Wyatt in the fall semester.

One Giant Leap for Ohio Students
“When I learned about this, I was like, ‘Space?! Of course I want to do that,’” says Michael Lane '25, a biological sciences major from Hamilton, Ohio, was looking for research opportunities.
The experience is led by Dr. Sarah Wyatt, who was one of 18 scientists who led the formulation of the nation's ambitious 10-year research roadmap to support humans traveling to the moon and Mars.
