XForce Fellowship Information:
The X-Force Fellowship program is an opportunity for technologists and entrepreneurs to serve their country by solving real-world national security problems in collaboration with the United States military. The X-Force Fellowship program is full-time, in-person, paid and runs from early June to mid-August. At its core, the program matches highly talented undergraduate and graduate students with operational military commands to deliver rapid, early stage prototypes that help solve project sponsor problems.
The X-Force Fellowship program is open to U.S. citizens at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Participants will possess a diverse set of skills ranging from mobile and web app development, data analysis and visualization, hardware prototyping, social media strategy, and technology scouting. Participants are provided the opportunity to work on a mission-focused real-world project, participate in a professional development opportunity, work directly with military and national security leaders, and gain perspective as to how their skills and experience can have an outsized impact on national security.
Interested applicants should complete the interest form available on the NSIN website, here. Fellows will be paid a competitive stipend and provided with a small budget for travel and material expenses.
