The Applied Physics Laboratory welcomes graduate and undergraduate student reseachers, supporting them through individual grants and contracts of APL-UW scientists and engineers.

Graduate students are matched with skilled researchers for leadership roles in field and lab programs.

Undergraduates are integrated directly into their APL-UW advisor’s research projects, serve as co-authors of research articles in peer-reviewed journals, and present research results at national and international scientific conferences.

To work with an APL-UW scientist or engineer, you must:

  • First apply to and be accepted by your academic department of choice (e.g., Electrical Engineering, Oceanography, etc.) because APL-UW does not grant degrees,
  • Then contact a prospective APL-UW advisor

Undergraduate and graduate scholarships are available to students in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).

Recent scholarship awardees:

2011 Boeing Scholar

Abbi McClintic – Environmental Health

2011 Hardisty Scholar

Ben Brand – Electrical Engineering
