The Jet Propulsion Laboratory has formal strategic partnerships with 14 universities that have major commitments to space exploration, and broad connections to JPL.

The Strategic University Research Partnerships (SURP) program supports these partnerships, providing resources to foster strong collaborative relationships. The program works with JPL researchers and our strategic partners to develop new science and technology opportunities, and provide accelerated innovation for NASA’s missions.
