CIA Info Sessions

Come hear about how you can translate a technical degree into challenging and rewarding work at the CIA as a Science, Technology & Weapons Analyst!

 

The CIA's Directorate of Intelligence (DI) seeks engineers, scientists, or those with strong technical backgrounds to analyze challenging national security issues including foreign weapons development, weapons proliferation, cyber warfare, and emerging technologies. Science, Technology, and Weapons (STW) analysts are professional intelligence officers who apply their scientific and technical knowledge to solving complex intelligence problems, and provide written or oral assessments to senior policymakers. This work demands initiative, creativity, analytical skills, and technical expertise. Agency STW analysts are encouraged to maintain and broaden professional ties through academic study, contacts, and attendance at professional meetings. They may also choose to pursue additional studies in fields relevant to their areas of responsibility. Opportunities exist for foreign travel, language training, analytic and management training, and assignments in other offices in the Agency and throughout the US Government. Minimum requirements include pursuit of degree or degree in: aerospace engineering; mechanical engineering; electrical engineering; computer engineering; computer science; nuclear engineering; physics; mathematics; chemistry and chemical engineering; biological sciences; biotechnology and microbiology; bioengineering/biomedical engineering; physical sciences; or remote sensing/GIS.
