The Florida A&M University-Florida State University College of Engineering and researchers and engineers from Eglin Air Force Base have begun a new partnership to train graduate and undergraduate students in areas critical to the Air Force. The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) at Eglin will fund a $400,000 grant to create the Air Force Research Laboratory Scholars program at the College of Engineering. The summer STEM-related intern program will bring students into the laboratory environment where they can directly benefit from working with faculty researchers on Air Force-related research. (Source: Florida State University 03/19/19) At Eglin, the AFRL Scholars Program offers summer on-site internship opportunities in research-based projects for high school and university students, as well as professional educators. The program includes researching the technologies and gaining a hands-on learning experience under the mentorship of AFRL scientists and engineers. The Eglin scholars program in Valparaiso, Fla., offers various programs, which include the Hap Arnold Scholars for internship positions to graduate students interested in various STEM fields that include Bioscience, Fuze technology, Materials Science, and Munitions Aerodynamics.
