Key Role:

The Cyber Internship is an innovative, hands-on internship program that attracts some of the nation’s best and brightest students. This competitive and collaborative program attracts thousands of applicants every year. Interns are broken up into teams of three to six and given a software or analysis problem to solve as a team, while being mentored throughout the summer by full-time staff, who are there to guide teams through solving their software challenges. Throughout the internship, interns receive mentorship from senior leaders, collaborate and experiment in Booz Allen’s innovation ecosystem, hear from experienced technical leaders, solve problems using Azure/AWS, and leverage the power of rapid prototyping to build, and break, software products. The summer culminates with a final Challenge Cup competition and presentation to senior leadership. Teams will learn our core values, work together to solve difficult technical problems, and have fun while doing it!
