RAND Corp Campus Visit

The RAND Corporation has openings for doctoral students for both summer internships and full-time positions.  RAND is a nonprofit institution that helps improve policy and decision making through research and analysis (see http://www.rand.org).  Engineering staff members at RAND bring their technical approach and insights to bear on a wide range of problems across RAND's defense, domestic, and international research agendas.  The positions require a background in engineering, physics, math or computer science, and given the nature of RAND's work, a strong interest in public policy.All research positions at RAND require excellent analytic skills; the ability to communicate clearly and effectively in English, both orally and in writing; the ability to work effectively as a member of a multi-disciplinary team; and a strong commitment to RAND's core values of quality and objectivity.  A PhD in engineering is typically required for engineering staff positions.  The Summer Associate Program is geared toward students who have completed two years of their Ph.D. program, offering them a paid internship at one of our three RAND offices in the U.S.RAND is planning a visit to USC on Friday December 5 at 12 Noon in EEB 248. Details will be forthcoming.For more information, please contact:
