Description

The US Army Engineer Research and Development Center/Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory has a continuing need for technical support services which can be performed by college and university students. The Student Contract Service (SCS) application is general in nature and identifies potential scientific and technical areas for student contract services. CRREL's mission is to study the nature and impact of cold on military and civil works activities and to develop methods to minimize these adverse effects. Research is conducted (1) to characterize the constraints placed on Army material and operation in a realistic winter battlefield environment, develops techniques and equipment to mitigate those effects, and provides engineering and consultation services, (2) to characterize the nature and impact of cold effects on the construction, operation, and maintenance of Army and civil works facilities and activities, (3) to mitigate the impact of human activity on the environment in cold regions, and (4) to understand the fundamental nature and characteristics of snow, ice, frozen ground, and other materials in cold environments including their interrelationships with other environmental parameters. Interested candidates must meet the following eligibility requirements (1) be a U.S. citizen, (2) attend a qualifying educational institution on a full-time basis, and (3) maintain at least a 2.5 grade point average on a scale of 4.0. Qualifying candidates are encouraged to request a copy of the SCS and, after review, complete the application form. Minority group members are encouraged to submit applications.
