MIT Lincoln Laboratory is pleased to announce we
will be on campus during the fall semester. The attachment provides
specific information regarding our activities. We would appreciate you
making this information available to your students.
The Laboratory’s fundamental mission is to apply
science and advanced technology to critical problems of national security,
primarily working on sensors, information extraction (signal processing and
embedded computing), and communications. A Department of Defense federally
funded research and development center, the Laboratory has a focused commitment
to R&D, with an emphasis on building prototypes and demonstrating operation
systems under live test conditions that meet real-world requirements. Our
R&D efforts span the following key mission areas:
· Space Control
· Air and Missile Defense Technology
· Communication Systems
· Cyber Security and Information Science
· Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR)
Systems and Technology
· Advanced Technology (electronic or electro-optical
technologies, biotechnology and chemistry)
· Engineering (innovative systems to test new concepts)
· Tactical Systems
· Homeland Protection
· Air Traffic Control

We actively recruit individuals pursuing BS, MS
and PhD degrees in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Computer Science,
Mathematics, and to a limited degree, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical
Engineering, Material Science, Biology, Chemistry, Meteorology and Materials
Science. Candidates should have an interest and ability to work on a broad
range of technical problems in a team environment and possess strong
problem-solving, analytical, innovative, communications, and teaming
skills.
Due to our contracts with the Department of
Defense employment at the Laboratory requires U.S. citizenship.
This summer the Laboratory employed 239 interns
(110 graduate students, 129 undergraduates) under the auspices of our Summer
Research Program. We expect to hire at the same level for summer 2016.
Eligibility requirements, program details, and the application process
can be viewed at http://www.ll.mit.edu/college/summerprogram.html.
Our 2015-2016 Technical Seminar Series offering
is available at http://www.ll.mit.edu/college/techseminars.html and is also
attached. Costs related to the staff members' visits will be assumed
by the Laboratory. Please review our website to obtain the process for
requesting a seminar.
Please encourage your top students to meet with
our technical staff members while they are on campus. If you have
questions, please feel free to contact me at hackett@ll.mit.edu or at
