Who Succeeds in MITRE's Internship Program?

Co-ops and interns are encouraged to participate in company-wide extracurricular and learning programs.

MITRE hires undergraduate and graduate students for co-op jobs, summer internships, and full-time jobs. We seek students with research and analytical skills, plus the ability to work with a range of technologies.

Experience with the following is especially desired: Java, C#, C++, Matlab, HTML, Visual Basic; understanding of enterprise frameworks (J2EE, .NET); familiarity with Windows, Linux, Mac, and UNIX operating systems; security; information assurance; cryptography; electronics (VHDL, Verilog, ASICs, FPGAs, embedded hardware and software, circuit design, antenna design), digital signal processing; GPS; software-defined radios; communication (wired and wireless); and network protocols.

Salary

Co-ops, interns and college graduates are paid a competitive salary commensurate with their education level and technical skills.
