Hello!
You are receiving this email through The Washington Center's (TWC) partnership with HBCU Connect!
TWC is excited to announce a new internship opportunity with the Naval Research Laboratory, called the NRL Summer Research Program, for the summer 2016 term. This new program specifically asks for HBCU/MI students – and positions will go fast!
Accepted applicants will be able to: work 40 hours per week under the guidance of senior NRL staff; conduct “hands on” laboratory research; be an active participant in major research programs; attend scientific and skill-set seminars; and, sharpen their professional skills through various projects and assignments.
While many students will be considered, the program is designed for backgrounds in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM). Some of the specific projects may include, but are not limited to:
- Molecular Engineering
- Microbotics: Engineering and Design
- Cybersecurity
- Microstructural Studies
- Elastomers and Functional Polymers
- Computational Design of Materials
- And much more!
Internships through the Naval Research Laboratory are fully-funded and paid opportunities. In addition, some support is provided for travel and other expenses. There is no out-of-pocket cost for participation.
To be considered for this opportunity, applications must be received by February 4, 2016.
To submit the application, you must include basic information, your resume and an essay. Letters of recommendation are required, but can arrive after submission. An official transcript will also be required and should be sent as soon as possible. Be sure to choose option 2 (the Federal Diversity Internship Initiative) on the application!
