National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
The NRC Research Associateship Programs, established in 1954, have supported the research of over 18,000 scientists and engineers. The goal of these programs is to provide advanced training and collaborative research opportunities for highly qualified graduate postdoctoral and visiting scientists, while enhancing the research conducted in federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. A wide variety of research opportunities, covering all fields of science and engineering, are available at top research laboratories across the U.S. and in select foreign locations. These awards are open to U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and with some limitations, foreign nationals.
