The Capabilities, Analysis and Development (CAD) division of Applied Research Associates, Inc.
(ARA) has an outstanding internship opportunity for a full-time student as a Physics / Computational Mechanics Intern.
This candidate must be currently enrolled.
The qualified intern will support modeling, simulation, code development, and analysis projects that utilize skills in numerical model development, computer programming, data analysis and visualization. This includes, but is not limited to, developing new computational capabilities that leverage existing physics-based models, running numerical simulations, and conducting analysis and visualization of simulation outputs compared to related experimental data.
The qualified intern will support an interdisciplinary team of scientists and engineers developing and enhancing the nation’s modeling and simulation tools used to model high energy weapons effects in support of national security and warfighter needs. Due to the nature of this work, you must be eligible to obtain and maintain a security clearance by the start of the internship.
This position is in-person and will last for approximately 12 weeks.
Please note that ARA does not provide housing assistance or relocation stipends.
Required Qualifications:
