METALLIC Internship Fall

Program Overview

The Minerals to Materials Supply Chain Research Facility (METALLIC) is a Department of Energy (DOE) initiative led by the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) and supported by a consortium of nine national laboratories. METALLIC is designed to accelerate the development of secure, domestic critical minerals and materials (CMM) supply chains by providing technology validation, testing, and commercialization support for innovators across the United States.

The METALLIC Interns will support multidisciplinary research and program activities focused on strengthening domestic critical minerals and materials supply chains. Interns will work alongside scientists, engineers, and program managers from Idaho National Laboratory and partner national laboratories to advance technology validation, testing, analysis, and stakeholder engagement efforts.

This internship is onsite at various INL facilities. Start date and internship duration vary based on project needs and intern availability.
