Sandia offers various fellowship opportunities to exceptional individuals in support of our national security mission. We offer opportunities for fully funded graduate degrees as well as self-directed research.

Ph.D.-level candidates can explore amazing postdoctoral fellowship opportunities at Sandia. For example, Sandia's Truman Fellows can choose their research areas and are fully supported with state-of-the-art instruments, research mentoring, and generous salaries. Sandia provides postdoctoral fellows with professional-development opportunities and prepares fellows to conduct independent, groundbreaking research. Best of all, Sandia surrounds postdoctoral fellows with a lasting community of thoughtful researchers united in their goal to make the world a better place.

Sandia also offers master's fellowships to support bachelor's-level candidates who wish to pursue technical graduate degrees. Master's fellows begin their Sandia careers by joining multidisciplinary R&D teams and forming mentoring relationships with top scientists and engineers. Sandia then supports these fellows in full-time graduate studies by providing tuition funds, stipends, and benefits. Finally, program participants are welcomed back to Sandia as master's-level technical staff members and are given meaningful projects to help change the world.
