University/College Faculty Programs

Temporary Faculty Program

NSWC Crane Division has been partnering with faculty from various Colleges and Universities for over 15 years via the Temporary Faculty Appointment Authority. The temporary faculty appointment provides an opportunity for faculty members to participate with engineers and scientists at NSWC Crane Division in research of mutual interest. The visiting faculty members are able to take the experience of working with NSWC Crane Division engineers and scientists in a professional environment back to their home institutions at the end of the program. Temporary Faculty can begin work at the conclusion of the school year or work intermittently throughout the year.
Note: Faculty members must be U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents who hold teaching or research appointments at a U.S. college and university.

Applications for the ONR Summer Faculty Research Program typically open at the beginning of each September and close in early December. NSWC Crane Division is notified by ONR of the faculty interested in doing their appointment at Crane facilities in January. From there, NSWC coordinators begin the process of pairing faculty with a Crane scientist and engineer in a similar field of interest.
