Contacts at the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has provided CBC with a flyer describing opportunities for undergraduates (and recent undergraduates) to get funding to work at or with AFRL. The flyer is linked here: AFRL Opportunities
The programs vary substantially: some are almost entirely managed externally, and some allow AFRL researchers to advocate heavily for specific collaborations. Each program has various requirements which are described in in detail with the links.
Join the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) on January 18, 2023, from 12 to 3 p.m. ET for a virtual career fair highlighting STEM internship and fellowship opportunities for college students and postgraduates at U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) research facilities around the country!
During the fair, attendees will have the chance to:
Keynote Presentation: Dr. Victor Convertino, senior scientist with the U.S. Army Institute of Surgical Research, will give a live presentation at the event. His talk is scheduled to begin at 12:15 p.m. ET.
NOTE: Most ORISE opportunities with the DoD require U.S. citizenship or Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) status. To see a full list of opportunities, click here.
This program is a 10-week educational experience that allows students the opportunity to research at one of two Air Force research facilities under the mentorship of an Air Force scientist. Research opportunities cover almost all STEM fields such as Chemistry, Biology, Computer Science, Mathematics, Cognitive Science, Physics and Kinesiology.
Students will gain first-hand research experience as well as learn the inner workings of an operational laboratory and develop contacts. Locations are Wright-Patterson AFB, Dayton, OH or Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio, TX. Stipend of ~$12,000 for the 10 weeks.
Application due January 31, 2020 at 8 A.M. EST
