Student Opportunities
Student Opportunities
At MIT Lincoln Laboratory, students gain valuable research experience and exposure to career paths across many scientific, engineering, and operational fields. Some programs fulfill a student's academic requirement, while others support thesis work at specific universities or offer paid internships. Many times, a student's experience at the Laboratory can evolve into post-graduation employment.
Our Impact
Our Impact
Lincoln Laboratory's innovative, advanced technology has not only been applied to national security problems but has also had significant impact on science, industry, and society. We have developed optics that enable the discovery of phenomena in the universe, invented a 193 nm lithographic technique that is the industry standard today, and created software that is helping emergency agencies plan for disaster responses.

A World Leader in Interactive Supercomputing
Through the Lincoln Laboratory Supercomputing Center (LLSC), researchers are tapping into New England's most powerful supercomputer from their desktops. They're using it to run large-scale simulations, prototype algorithms, and conduct data analysis tasks that, because of their size and complexity, require thousands of parallel processors. And they're doing it all on a system that runs 100 percent carbon free.

A software platform streamlines emergency response
A software platform streamlines emergency response
Lincoln Laboratory developed the Next-Generation Incident Command System (NICS) to enable first responders across different jurisdictions, agencies, and countries to effectively coordinate during emergencies of any scale. This web-based information-sharing tool was originally intended to help U.S. firefighters respond to wildfires. NICS has since evolved from an R&D prototype into an open-source operational platform adopted by emergency-response agencies worldwide not only for natural disaster response but also search-and-rescue operations, health crises management, public event security, and aviation safety. The global community of users cultivated by NICS and spinouts inspired by NICS have maximized its impact.
