We were happy to have our summer interns here from NREIP, SEAP and SMART at our Navy Lab.
New opportunities are now available as the application window for several of these programs opened Aug. 1 and will remain open until Nov. 1 at 10:59 (Central Time).

▶SMART: https://www.smartscholarship.org/smart?id=smart_opportunities
The Science, Mathematics, and Research for Transformation (SMART) Scholarship-for-Service Program, funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, is more than a scholarship. SMART is a unique education and workforce development opportunity for aspiring leaders in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
Scholarship recipients receive full tuition, annual stipends, health and book allowances, mentorship, and conduct summer internships at a DoD facility. All scholarship applicants should be pursuing, or intend to pursue, a degree in one of the SMART STEM disciplines. Your first step to an impactful civilian career with the Department of Defense is reviewing the eligibility requirements for the SMART Scholarship Program.

▶NDSEG: https://ndseg.org/
The National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (NDSEG) Fellowship program was established in 1989 by direction of congress as an approach to increasing the number of United States (U.S.) citizens receiving doctoral degrees in science and engineering (S&E) disciplines of military importance.
Applicants who are interested in furthering their education in the disciplines of military importance compete for Fellowship opportunities listed under DoD’s Broad Agency Announcements (BAAs) in research development. The broad research area disciplines include, but are not limited to the following: aeronautical and astronautical engineering, Astrodynamics, biomedical engineering, biosciences (includes toxicology); chemical engineering; chemistry; civil engineering; cognitive, neural, and behavioral sciences; computer and computational sciences; electrical engineering; geosciences (includes terrain, water, and air); materials science and engineering; mathematics; mechanical engineering; naval architecture and ocean engineering (includes undersea systems); oceanography (includes ocean acoustics, remote sensing, and marine meteorology); physics (including optics) and space physics.
The highly competitive Fellowship Program has awarded nearly 4700 fellowships from over 70,000 applications to U.S. citizens and nationals since its inception in 1989. Selected Fellows can choose the U.S. Institution to attend for pursuit of their doctoral degree.
▶Naval Horizons: https://www.navalhorizons.us/
Naval Horizons introduces students to cutting-edge Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) topics that impact the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps – to include autonomy, oceanography, cybersecurity, undersea medicine, and more. We invite students to learn about Naval STEM challenges and our scientists and engineers through this video series. Then, we encourage students to write an essay explaining how our research and our people inspire them. This contest challenges students to picture themselves in a STEM career by designing the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps of the future.
ESSAYS (500 - 1,500 words total)
Watch the videos to learn about U.S. Navy and Marine Corps STEM research areas and our people.
Choose one of the STEM topics highlighted in the videos, conduct additional research on the subject, and compose your essay.
Your essay needs to include 1) STEM Research Area, 2) Our People, and 3) The Future. The essays must be between 500-1,500 words total.
Judges will select up to 5,000 winners. All winners are eligible to receive a $200 cash prize. Exceptional essays may be highlighted on a Naval STEM web page and will be designated Naval Horizons Highest Honors.
