The Advanced Materials and Manufacturing group at the National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) is seeking an engineering or related field student for a year round internship located in our downtown Huntsville, Alabama office. This role is designed to support an applied learning atmosphere while the student continues working toward their undergraduate or graduate degree.
We are looking for candidates with an interest in metallic and polymer additive manufacturing, high temperature composite materials, or software development and databasing. This position supports all aspects of applied research for a variety of government and industry customers.
Project work will typically involve the characterization, qualification, and integration of newly emerging materials and manufacturing processes into both current and next generation systems. The types of evaluation will involve a wide range of systems such as ground vehicles, aircraft, and missile. Evaluations may also include thermo-structural modeling and studies related to material decomposition in high-temperature environments.
This position will be based entirely in Huntsville, AL, and will see you work closely with engineers at NIAR to support our growing government and industry customer base. If you are detail-oriented, enjoy challenging and rewarding work, and like being part of a team, consider applying for this position.
