After graduation, what?
Will you begin your career as an
engineer or scientist or return to
school for an advanced degree?
You can do both at NOL
If you are an engineer in the top third of your class or a scientist in the top quarter
of your class, NOL offers you the opportunity to begin your career in one of the world's
great laboratories and, at the same time, go ahead with your plans for graduate study.
NOL is a laboratory in the true meaning of the word, and
one of the largest and best-equipped laboratories in the
world. It is the nation's leading R&D establishment for
Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW), the Navy’s principal high
speed aeroballistics activity, and a leader in the develop
ment of new air and surface weapons. The spectrum of
research at NOL ranges from nuclear effects to acoustics
to explosives and materials. At NOL, weapons development
is carried through from inception to design to prototype
test and development. Since 1950, NOL has completed 209
new weapons and devices such as SUBROC, nuclear depth
bombs, mines, projectile fuzes, underwater detection sys
tems, and components and design data for POLARIS,
TARTAR, TALOS, TERRIER, ATLAS and TITAN missiles. A
civilian staff of over 3,000 people includes more than 1,000
professional engineers and scientists—experts with na
tional and international reputations. Extensive and unique
facilities embrace wind tunnels operating to Mach 17,
hypervelocity ballistic ranges, the world’s most exceptional
hydroballistic facility, shock tunnels, 300g centrifuge . . .
multi-million-dollar experimental facilities.
Here is your opportunity. Each year, NOL interviews out
standing engineering and science graduating students.
Selects the handful that seems to be really creative. Takes
them to its beautiful 875-acre “campus” (the front yard
is a golf course) in the rolling hills of Maryland near the
Nation’s Capital. Puts them through an optional one-year
professional development course with rotational assign
ments to various areas within the Laboratory to prepare
them for permanent assignments.
From the very beginning, new staff members have an oppor
tunity to contribute directly to significant projects ... to
be part of an organization where groups are small and
emphasis is on the individual.
NOL offers you a graduate study program that is one of
the largest and most productive programs in the country.
Each year members of our professional staff receive M.S.’s
or Ph.D.’s through this program. NOL has a significant ad
vantage in its proximity to the University of Maryland. Many
NOL staff members hold permanent part-time positions on
the Maryland faculty, and graduate level courses are taught
at NOL every semester. Maryland also offers many courses
on its own campus—only minutes away—at times which
are convenient to and keyed to the special requirements
of NOL
sile systems, instrumentation for weapons evaluation and
aeroballistics research, and performance of new concept
feasibility experiments.
Chemical Engineers and Chemists—for research and devel
opment pertaining to high-energy propellants and explo
sives; high polymers; mo'ecular and crystal structures;
electrochemistry; high-temperature, high-pressure chemical
equilibrium studies; and the thermodynamics of high-
energy reactions.
Engineering Physicists ~nd Physicists—theoretical and ex
perimental research in a wide range of areas including
signal processing, infrared radiation, acoustics, magnetic
and semi-conductive materials, and detonation physics;
plus weapon systems development and studies.
