Overview

The Computer Science Research Institute (CSRI) at Sandia creates technology and solutions for many of our nation’s most demanding national security challenges. The Intstitute’s portfolio spans the spectrum from fundamental research to state-of-the-art applications. Our work includes computer system architecture (both hardware and software); enabling technology for modeling physical and engineering systems; and research in discrete mathematics, data analytics, quantum computing, cognitive modeling, and decision support.

The Computer Science Research Institute (CSRI) enterprise is closely tied to the laboratories’ broader set of missions and strategies. Application areas include nuclear weapons, cyber security, climate modeling, alternative energy technologies, and improvements to the power grid. We also serve as stewards of important capabilities for the nation in high-strain-rate physics, scientific visualization, mesh generation, and computational materials. We maintain world-class research programs in computational and discrete mathematics, artificial intelligence, computer science, scalable algorithms, and large-scale high performance computer systems.

What You Gain

The CSRI Internship Program is multidisciplinary internship program focused on training the future leaders of computing. The program is jointly hosted by the Center for Computing Research (CCR, Albuquerque site) and the Center for Computing and Analysis for National Security (CA site).  The program includes:

• Resume-building direct research experience with a Sandia staff member.
• Exposure to a wide array of Sandia R&D activities through a specialized summer seminar series for CSRI Interns.
• Networking with world-class researchers
• Authorship and publication of an article on your summer research in the annual Summer Proceedings.

Project Types

Summer project work involves direct collaboration with a staff mentor on collaborative research across a wide range of areas in computer science, applied mathematics, discrete mathematics, mathematical modeling, computational science and engineering, parallel computing, and computational neuroscience. Possible research areas include advanced computer architectures, systems software, parallel algorithms, programming languages and paradigms, machine learning, data sciences, combinatorial mathematics, discrete event simulation, scalable solvers, continuous and discrete optimization, uncertainty quantification, statistics, multiscale methods and mathematics, multiphysics modeling, visualization, visual cognition, cybersecurity, advanced modeling and simulation, human decision modeling, and brain inspired computing.  Projects may also involve applying computational methods to scientific and engineering applications including shock physics, molecular dynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, computational fluid dynamics, electrical systems, and climate science.

These student internships are for motivated and enthusiastic individuals with excellent communication skills and who have the desire to gain research experience in a highly collaborative research environment. Successful applicants will be exposed to a wide range of computational research at Sandia and will have a strong project-based research experience working directly with Sandia staff scientists. There are opportunities at both our Albuquerque, NM and Livermore, CA laboratories.
