Hiring a SISMAT Intern

Do you find it difficult to find talented interns or recent college graduates with experience in information security? Would you like the opportunity to work with a promising undergraduate from a selective pool of candidates from small colleges in the northeast? Do you feel that you spend too much time teaching new interns the basics of security?

The SISMAT program recruits highly motivated undergraduates and gives them hands-on training in information security tools and techniques, including PKI, basic cryptography concepts, and network security tools. Following their training and summer internship in secure systems, SISMAT students work with a partner professor at their home institution to do an independent research project in security. SISMAT organizers work with students, their professors, and their internship supervisors to enhance the quality of secure systems curricula at their respective schools, with the hope of improving the state of security education at the undergraduate level.

By hiring a SISMAT participant, you not only receive a qualified intern with training tailored to his or her role in your organization, but also have the opportunity to network with professors who are likely to encounter similar candidates in the future, as well as contribute to the improved training and preparation of college graduates today.

If you are interested in hiring a SISMAT participant, we would like to hear from you. Please contact us at this email address, or 603.646.0700. If you cannot hire an intern for the 2013 program year, we also welcome suggestions of topics that you consider important for SISMAT student training to cover. Finally, if you have interesting experiences or insight to share and are interested in being a guest lecturer for SISMAT, feel free to send us an email about yourself and your relevant expertise.
