Challenge Requirements
• Aimed at providing STEM outreach for minority students
• Increase completion rates of undergraduate degrees in underrepresented groups of students
• Disseminate ‘best practices’ to STEM programs • Available to students nationally and integrate with local
organizations • 3-4 year curriculum culminating in senior design-type
project • Designed to complement and supplement a standard 4 year
bachelor’s program in engineering/other STEM majors (in FY16, FY17, FY18)
• Develop and implement processes to capture the impact of the activities
• Topic must be aligned with NASA goals/directorates

Planetary Mapping with Human-Autonomy Teaming
• Inspired by NASA Armstrong’s Autonomy and Ames’ Human Automation Teaming Programs
• Students design a Human-Autonomy Team of a scout, rover, and operator
• Task: planetary mapping • Rover is capable of traversing exoplanet-like landscape, charging
UAV • Scout is a UAV capable of flight and image capturing • Autonomous cooperation between Rover and Scout (Autonomous
team) • Operator (e.g., astronaut) sets goals and assists autonomous
agents • Interface and communication methods (w/ delays) for operator
teaming with autonomous agents • Student teams must do outreach activities • High commitments from NASA Armstrong and Ames
• Host competition at Armstrong airspace • Provide technical support (e.g., videos/interviews with NASA scientists)

CSUN Implementation • A CECS multidisciplinary senior design project (ME, EE, CS,
CE, MSEM, Psychology, Art, Geography) will be offered and dedicated to participate in this challenge
• Incorporate Mentorship and best practices • “Cohort Experience” and “genuine” mentorship • Tap into existing mentorship programs at CSUN
(University 100, ME 101, EOP) • Work with Dr. Efrat's Title V grant team: existing
mentors and mentees • Provides social web, impetus for staying in school
• Collaboration and outreach • Community colleges, and students from Northridge and
Granada Hills High Schools • IEEE’s EPICS Program (Dr Ramesh) and organizations
