Students collaborate with NASA

Five University of South Dakota students and their professor collaborated with NASA for an online project during the 2012-13 school year that has resulted in several design awards.

Collin Hover, assistant professor of graphic design, senior Calvin LaBrie and May 2013 graduates Ashley Palmer, Amy Gehling, Amanda Connelly and Keaton Solomon created a website called “NASA: Prospect,” with the goal of increasing space exploration awareness as well as being a teaching tool for the solar system.

The project was sponsored by NASA’s Humans in Space Youth Art Competition and has earned six awards, including the Awwward Site of the Day, the CSS Design Award, the Favorite Website Awards short-list, the Smashing Design Award, QIndex best web design list and QNT Gallery Web Design  Inspirations list.
