INTERN & PostDoc in Supply Chains and Manufacturing at the University of Maryland UARC
Thomas Hedberg is leading the Acquisition and Industrial Security (A&IS) mission area and helping build up this brand-new organization. ARLIS is a University Affiliated Research Center (UARC) sponsored by the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security (OUSD(I&S)). They are the only UARC dedicated to the intelligence community (IC) and their mission of intelligence and security.ARLIS currently has openings for remote/virtual internships and postdocs in STEM and policy research related to A&IS. See below (attached) for position descriptions for internships or postdocs. Please be aware that these positions are currently only available to U.S. Citizens because of U.S. Government funding and contract requirements. They will prioritize candidates based on experience, but will also consider candidates who have interest in the skills listed in the position descriptions.If you are interested in finding out more about the UARC, please don't hesitate to contact Thomas Hedberg.Thomas Hedberg, Jr., Ph.D., P.E.Acquisition and Industrial Security Lead, Applied Research Laboratory for Intelligence and Security (ARLIS)Visiting Associate Research Engineer, Institute for Systems Research (ISR)Associate Research Engineer, University of Maryland, College Parkthedberg@arlis.umd.edu; Office: 630.234.7983 (temporary)
