side-by-side with world experts at Sandia's Future Of Research for
Climate, Earth and Energy (FORCEE) Intern Institute. Our Renewable
Energy interns take on challenges in the designing, modeling,
developing, and testing of renewable energy technologies, such as
bioenergy, concentrated solar, photovoltaic solar, geothermal,
water, and wind, to contribute to the nation's energy security and
resilience, economic viability, and environmental sustainability.
Technical activities cover the spectrum of high-fidelity modeling,
materials development, analysis, and testing, advanced controls
systems, high-temperature and high-pressure systems, cyber
security, verification and validation/uncertainty quantification,
subsurface access and sensing, and large-scale performance, safety,
and reliability testing.
Our student interns are offered hands-on, flexible, and
cutting-edge research opportunities while being mentored by Sandia
National Laboratories scientists and engineers. These real-world
experiences are supplemented with technical seminars and facility
tours which give our students unique insight into the broad range
of engineering and scientific disciplines represented at
Sandia.
Students will be called upon to apply their skills in computer
programming, machine learning, hands-on data collection and
reduction, and integrated multi-physics simulation environments.
Students will work collaboratively over the course of the
internship with a mentor and affiliated team members to deliver
high-impact results ultimately suitable for publication in leading
technical journals and conferences and culminating in an
end-of-year FORCEE symposium presentation. In addition to nurturing
