WHAT YOUR JOB WILL BE LIKE

We are seeking summer R&D undergraduate interns.
The Computer Science Research Institute (CSRI) seeks several students to participate in collaborative research across a wide range of areas in computer science, applied mathematics, discrete mathematics, mathematical modeling, computational science and engineering, and high-performance computing. Possible research areas include quantum computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, advanced computer architectures, systems software, parallel algorithms, programming languages and paradigms, data sciences, materials, combinatorial mathematics, discrete event simulation, scalable solvers, continuous and discrete optimization, uncertainty quantification, statistics, multiscale methods and mathematics, multiphysics modeling, visualization, meshing, advanced modeling and simulation, human decision modeling, and brain inspired computing. Students are also sought with interests in applying computational methods to scientific and engineering applications including shock physics, molecular dynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, computational fluid dynamics, electrical systems, and climate security. These student internships are for motivated and enthusiastic individuals with excellent communication skills and who have the desire to gain research experience in a highly collaborative research environment. Successful applicants will be exposed to a wide range of computational research at Sandia and will have a strong project-based research experience working directly with Sandia staff scientists. This opportunity is for Sandia’s Albuquerque, NM laboratory.

QUALIFICATIONS WE REQUIRE

You bring the confidence and skills to be eligible for the job by meeting these minimum requirements:

• Currently attending and enrolled full time in the spring term immediately preceding the internship (or scheduled to graduate in the spring) in an accredited undergraduate program
• Pursuing a science, engineering, or math major
• Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0/4.0
• Ability to work up to 40 hours per week during the summer
• U.S. citizens, legal permanent residents, asylees or refugees in the U.S.

Note: If you have not earned a HS diploma or equivalent, please apply to a high school intern position.

QUALIFICATIONS WE DESIRE

• Majoring in chemistry, computer science, engineering, mathematics, neuroscience, physics, statistics, or a related field
• Communication skills appropriate for participating in multi-disciplinary research teams
• Software development and programming experience (C++, C, Fortran, Matlab, Java, Python)
• Knowledge or the interest to learn parallel programming such as MPI, OpenMP, and/or threads
• Experience with mathematical modeling techniques (e.g., linear and integer programming, statistical modeling, system dynamics modeling)

NNSA REQUIREMENTS FOR MEDPEDS

If you have a Medical Portable Electronic Device (MedPED), such as a pacemaker, defibrillator, drug-releasing pump, hearing aids, or diagnostic equipment and other equipment for measuring, monitoring, and recording body functions such as heartbeat and brain waves, if employed by Sandia National Laboratories you may be required to comply with NNSA security requirements for MedPEDs.
If you have a MedPED and you are selected for an on-site interview at Sandia National Laboratories, there may be additional steps necessary to ensure compliance with NNSA security requirements prior to the interview date
