Summer Research Program
Each summer, the Laboratory offers undergraduate and graduate students the unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a leading-edge research environment. Program participants contribute to projects and gain experience that complements their courses of study. In recent summers, we've hired more than 200 students representing top universities.
Students have opportunities to
- Interface with national experts in numerous fields of research
- Work with state-of-the-art equipment on real-world technical applications
- Present the results of their research conclusions at the end of the summer
The program runs from mid-May through mid-August and provides the following:
- Competitive weekly pay.
- Round-trip travel expense assistance for students relocating from 50 miles outside the Boston area.
- Discounted housing on Northeastern University's campus up to 12 weeks for students whose permanent address is greater than 50 miles outside the Boston area.
- Daily free shuttle service from the Northeastern and MIT campuses to Lincoln Laboratory (Monday through Friday).
To be eligible for the Summer Research Program, students must have at least completed their sophomore year of college or be enrolled in a master's or doctoral program. In addition, students must have maintained an excellent academic record and be a U.S. citizen.
