As part of the US Intelligence Community, the National Security Agency (NSA) focuses on signals intelligence, which involves the interception of communication signals between people, machines or both. NSA is the undisputed leader in this field. Our signals intelligence activities are never directed at American citizens. Cybersecurity is our other specialty, which is all about protecting American systems from prying eyes.

 

What is our mission? The most simple, concise answer is that we are here to SAVE LIVES. We never want another 9/11. That’s our biggest, most important, most vital mission.

 

We offer multiple employment opportunities for students in college and for seniors at high schools with the intention of pursuing a Bachelor’s degree. We offer a wide variety of student programs, which offer real-world experience, and the chance to be a part of something that you’ve never even dreamed about – plus, it could lead to a full-time career after you graduate.

 

Summer Internships 

• Internships at NSA provide exciting work and compensation commensurate with academic level.
• Students working toward an undergraduate, graduate, or postgraduate degree in a field critical to NSA’s mission, we can help them gain real-world experience.
• Opportunities exist in many of our most challenging job categories for college students willing to dedicate their time to national security.
