AFOSR Internship Joint Research Opportunities

Universities funded by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) were surveyed by Virginia tech applied Research Corporation (VT-ARC) to better understand their needs related to technology transfer and research transition best practices, as well as the types of support they seek from AFOSR. Survey responses indicated strong interest in learning more about joint research projects, workshops, and student internship opportunities. In response, VT-ARC compiled this resource highlighting AFOSR, Department of War (DoW), Air Force (AF), and Department of the Air Force (DAF) funded programs that offer student internships (K-12 and university), joint research opportunities, and workshop hosting opportunities.
