A Chance For A Historically Black College & University To Rocket STEM Programs

Cincinnati, OH  -- The nonprofit Base 11 has received a $1.5 million gift to improve diversity in the aerospace talent pipeline.

With the money, Base 11 will fund a grant to one Historically Black College or University (HBCU) to develop a hands-on, experiential rocketry program. This new initiative was announced Sunday at the bi-annual gathering of Sigma Pi Phi Fraternity, known as The Boulé, the oldest predominately African American fraternity in the world.

The commercial space industry is expected to become a $2.7 trillion economic sector in the next 30 years, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Yet the industry faces challenges in recruiting a diverse workforce.

"The African American workforce and entrepreneurial community was largely left behind by the tech boom in Silicon Valley, and we don't want to see the same thing happen with the commercial space industry," said Landon Taylor, Base 11 CEO. "This grant will equip an HBCU with the seed capital and human capital needed to build a robust, long-term student rocketry program that can work in concert with industry to develop in-demand aerospace talent and launch new innovations that will harness space as the new frontier."
