About this position
The URA-Sandia Graduate Student Summer Fellowship Program at Sandia National Laboratories offers graduate students a hands-on research experience in Radiation, Electrical and High Energy Density Science. Fellows join research and development projects aligned with Sandia’s Research Foundations and work in a National Laboratory environment that supports science, technology, engineering, and mathematics research for national security missions.
Selected fellows are mentored by Sandia technical staff and take part in meetings, events, and tours organized through URA and Sandia student and academic programs. The fellowship emphasizes practical research experience, including designing and carrying out experiments or computational/analytical studies, interpreting data to Sandia standards, and communicating results to both technical and non-technical audiences.
The program is connected to Sandia National Laboratories’ broader research ecosystem, with the advertised opportunity specifically centered on Radiation, Electrical and High Energy Density Science. Applicants with interest in related Sandia research foundations may also be relevant to the wider set of supported research areas.
Summer fellows will be placed at one of Sandia National Laboratories’ primary sites in Albuquerque, New Mexico or Livermore, California. The appointment is for 12 weeks in summer 2027.
