High School Internships

Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) Division Newport offers student internships for high school students.

Undersea Technology Apprentice Program (UTAP)
The application for the 2025 summer sessions will be posted here March 1, 2025. Applications must be submitted by April 1, 2025.

UTAP provides an opportunity for high school students to study and work part time for three weeks during the summer alongside NUWC Division Newport scientists and engineers. In the process, students gain valuable insights by working with advanced technology to develop a solution to real-world challenges.

The program is open to rising sophomores, juniors and seniors only. Please note that all application materials must be included for a student to be considered for an internship. Students will be notified by mid-May if accepted.
