When most people think of NASA AMES they see it as a field facility for NASA tests, not as a place for advancement of undergraduates when it comes to research= [[File:Ames aerialsmall. However, most people are jpg|thumb|right, NASA AMES is a field center that conducts world class research and development.

NASA AMES Research center today is the leader in nanotechnology, information technology, fundamental space biology, biotechnology, thermal protection systems, and human factors research. Originally a center for Aeronautics, NASA AMES was the center for any and all developments in flight regimes in the 1960’s and 70’s. AMES has now turned into one of the main hubs for NASA to excel and achieve new heights when it comes to the development and implementation of new research.----
Well how can this all help undergraduates? It all comes back to those 2500 employees involved in the high level end research. Those 2500 people are willing and able to let students in and help them develop their projects<span style="font-size:medium;">'''<span style="color: rgb(0, all the student has to do is ask.

If anything this process is better are not responsible for students as it pushes them to be able to communicate with what is called cold contact communicationdeveloping spacecraft. Too many undergraduates are afraid of this topic Instead, they perform research and a lot of them try development that helps to look for a way which is structuredsupport the flight centers. In particular, but they all forget the most important thing; they are NASA Ames Research Center has a student.

Since 1939, NASA AMES also has been a hub for promotion of learning. Since then the center has grown and now welcomes undergraduates. NASA AMES offers a fellowship to students with a unique and driven idea for innovation and strengthening an internship program which brings students to aspect of NASA AMES . Students can also intern over the summer and lets them get be involved in the actual NASA research projects . Undergraduates in an internship or fellowship position will gain skills that are going oncannot be taught in the classroom. NASA AMES is truly a gift basket to any undergraduate seekinginformation or advice as he or she goes into the professional world of innovation and design.</span> ''Edited By:''<span style="font-size: larger;"> </span>[[Sophie Zehentner|Sophie_Zehentner]], [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/User:Gavan_Huang Gavan_Huang], [[NickHennigan|Nicholas M.
