International STEM Internships: Science Diplomacy and Global Safety & Security Stages internationaux dans les STIM : diplomatie scientifique et sûreté et sécurité mondiales
Organized by: U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science & Technology
The Department of Homeland Security Directorate of Science and Technology (DHS S&T) and Defense Research and Development Canada (DRDC) piloted an international internship program in 2022. The program offered internships to students majoring in sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines with direct safety and security mission application. For Summer 2022, two students were selected as the first international interns, and conducted research in public safety and security areas of mutual U.S.-CA interest in Ottawa, Canada. The goal of the internship is to promote a diverse, educated, and skilled pool of STEM professionals and a workforce experienced and passionate for international cooperation in public safety and security.
