By stepping outside the classroom and working directly with experienced professionals, cadets gain invaluable insights into industry and government practices, develop stronger problem‑solving and leadership skills, and build relationships that often extend into future research, capstone projects, or continued collaboration. This transformative experience not only enriches their education but also plays a vital role in shaping agile, thoughtful leaders prepared to meet the complex challenges of the 21st century. Examples of EECS Internships Electronic Warfare Systems C5ISR in Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland, hosted multiple cadets for "Offensive Cyber Capabilities and Research Engineering." Cadets worked with experimental electronic warfare systems. “The AIAD introduced me to fields of Army Cyber that are not traditionally advertised and directed my educational interest to more practical and field development and application of cyber tools and systems," according to a participating cadet. Cyber Vulnerability Research Joint Cyber Operations Group (JCOG) in Fort Meade, Maryland, hosted cadets for cyber vulnerability research. Cadets participated in active research to develop real-world tools in a classified environment. “The trust and autonomy given to cadets working on real-world projects was unbelievable. The connections made, the technical skills learned, and the accommodation provided made this an unbelievable AIAD," according to a participating cadet. Software Development Joint Cyber Operations Group (JCOG) in Fort Meade, Maryland, hosted cadets for cyber vulnerability research. Cadets participated in active research to develop real-world tools in a classified environment. “The trust and autonomy given to cadets working on real-world projects was unbelievable. The connections made, the technical skills learned, and the accommodation provided made this an unbelievable AIAD," according to a participating cadet. Tactical Mobility Systems DEVCOM C5ISR hosted cadets at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland, to explore 5G Tactical Mobility systems. Cadets assisted and learned about the Army’s efforts to modernize battlefield command and control systems to leverage 5G capabilities. Cadet touchpoints spanned from doctrinal discussions to hands-on testing with current prototype spectrum analysis tools. Past Partnerships Cadets are introduced to prototype RF equipment at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland. Cadets meet with Joint Cyber Operations Group hosts at Fort Meade, Maryland, in an unclassified setting. A senior officer in the U.S. Army discusses AIAD findings with cadets.
