Internships

UNITED LAUNCH ALLIANCE    
2014 SUMMER ENGINEERING INTERNSHIPS
 
$14.50 to $22.50/hr., 40 hrs/wk.  Location:  If selected, applicants may not choose and must be willing to complete an Internship at any one of the locations listed below.
a.  Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida 
b.  Decatur, Alabama 
c.  Denver, Colorado 
d.  Harlingen, Texas 
e.  Vandenberg Air Force Base, California
Engineering Intern positions offer a variety of opportunities including basic engineering tasks related to design, analysis, test, integration and systems engineering.  Opportunities can vary from design/analysis in support of existing ground, flight, test, or processing hardware for both launch vehicles and ground support equipment or systems, assisting in the design and development of future hardware, test development and performance, software design and test, systems engineering, mission integration, project management, quality assurance, system safety, launch operations, production operations, and even related business opportunities such as subcontractor management and procurement.  Internships may require travel to suppliers, customers, or other ULA locations.
Interns will typically support one or more experienced engineers in performance of assignments, spend time shadowing actual operations, and have unique assignments that support larger projects--all enabling the Intern to experience the day-to-day operations of engineering within United Launch Alliance.  Interns may perform and/or participate in additional activities and events which help them build a strong network within the ULA community and with fellow Interns.      
A taxable housing/transportation stipend may be provided to obtain housing near the ULA work location if the successful candidate’s permanent home address and current college address are both greater than 50 miles from the assigned ULA work location.

3.        Freshmen candidates must be in their first year of engineering studies and have completed a full year of Calculus and a minimum of one class in Physics and one class in Chemistry with a grade of C or better.  Freshman candidates must submit their unofficial transcript after completion of their first college term in 2013; NO LATER THAN JANUARY 13, 2014. 
4.        Sophomore candidates must be in their second year of engineering studies. 
5.        Upper-level candidates must be planning on graduating with a bachelor's or master's degree and entering the workforce on a full-time basis between December 2014 and December 2015, or, having completed a bachelor's degree, plan on returning to college in the fall of 2014 to work on an advanced degree. 
6.        Applicants must be working toward a B.S. or M.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering; Mechanical Engineering; Electrical Engineering; Computer Science, Information Systems, or Information Technology; Applied Math, Computational Physics, Applied Physics, or Numerical Physics; Materials Engineering or an Engineering degree with an emphasis on welding. 
7.        Students must be able to complete an internship at any one of the locations listed below. 
a.        Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida 
b.        Decatur, Alabama 
c.        Denver, Colorado 
d.        Harlingen, Texas 
e.        Vandenberg Air Force Base, California 
8.        Students must have motorized vehicle transportation to perform an internship assignment in California or Florida due to no public transportation to the Air Force Base and travel between different buildings when on the Base.  Motorized transportation is highly recommended at all other sites as well; Decatur and Harlingen do not have public transportation systems. 
9.        ULA has a minimum college GPA requirement of 2.90 on a 4.00 scale; cumulative, no rounding.  NOTE: To complete your application and be considered, you must submit your unofficial transcript.  If you are selected for an internship, you must maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.90 after each completed semester/term.  Note that ULA only considers the cumulative GPA listed on the unofficial/official transcript provided by the institution that candidates currently attend.

Freshman:  Mechanical-37484, Aerospace-37485, Electrical-37486
Sophomore:  Aerospace-37488, Electrical-37489, Mechanical-37495, Weld-37483
Upper Level/Graduate:  Mechanical-37490, Aerospace-37491, Computer Science-37492, Math/Physics-37493, Electrical-37494
Welcome to ULA's Intern Program.  United Launch Alliance’s summer Intern program offers paid engineering and business positions designed to provide students with real work experience and exposure to ULA’s work environment.  Interns are encouraged to generate and share new ideas in order to deliver real work products that impact ULA’s missions, methodologies and processes.  Interns have the opportunity to enhance existing knowledge and apply their skills in a real-world business environment.  Successful interns are evaluated for potential employment opportunities with ULA after graduation.

Interns have the opportunity to participate in the development, build and launch of a high-powered sport-rocket that is more than 20 feet tall. This voluntary activity is an integrated effort with Ball Aerospace interns, who build the payloads for the rocket.​
