If you're an engineer or scientist near the top*of your class, you'll get plenty of opportunities.
But none quite like this.
*Engineers—top third
*Scientists—top quarter
NOL IS DIFFERENT from other organizations which may seek your services. It is completely creative in purpose, a laboratory in the true meaning of the word, and one of the largest and best-equipped laboratories in the world.
NOL is big because it has a big job to do. NOL creates advanced naval weapons, works from inception to design to prototype test and development. Research ranges from nuclear effects to acoustics to explosives and materials. NOL is the nation's leading R&D establishment for Anti-Submarine Warfare, the Navy's principal high-speed aeroballistics activity, and a leader in the development of new air and surface weapons. It is also the Navy's primary laboratory for the development of projectile, rocket and bomb fuses. Since 1950, NOL has completed 158 new weapons and devices.
THE JOB DEMANDS THE FINEST FACILITIES.
NOL has them: Mach 17 wind tunnel, 200 G centrifuge, hypervelocity ballistic range,
IBM 7090 computer, underseas weapon tank, antenna range, particle accelerator,
millions of dollars worth of equipment, much of it unique.
And the job demands people. NOL has a civilian staff of 3,000.1,000 are professional engineers and scientists,many with national and international reputations.
HERE IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY. Each year, NOL interviews outstanding engineers and scientific graduates to join its staff. 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 a one-year professional development course with rotational assignments to various areas within the Laboratory to prepare them for permanent assignments.
From the very beginning, new staff members have an opportunity to contribute directly to significant projects...to be part of an organization where groups are small and emphasis is on the individual. NOL stimulates continuing professional growth by providing both time and support for graduate study programs.Maryland University is 10 minutes away, and graduate level courses are taught at NOL each semester.
NOL needs:
AEROSPACE ENGINEERS to conduct design studies of high-speed, high-performance re-entry systems and solve basic problems in theoretical and experimental aerothermodynamics, aeroballistics and hydroballistics. To perform the aerodynamic design and development of hypervelocity wind tunnels and ballistic ranges.
MECHANICAL ENGINEERS to conceive, design develop and test arming and target-detecting devices for tactical and strategic missiles, underwater weapons, rocket motors, jet and aerodynamic controls, complex weapon vehicle structures, and mechanical or electromechanical time and motion-sensing mechanisms.
ELECTRONIC ENGINEERS to design and develop underwater communications and detection systems, weapon guidance systems, influence fusing, airborne missile systems, instrumentation for weapons evaluation and aeroballistic research. To perform new concept feasibility experiments.
PHYSICISTS AND MATHEMATICIANS to conduct basic and applied research in underwater acoustic effects, oceanography, electromagnetic and infra-red radiation, magnetic and semi-conductive materials. To perform analytic studies of weapons systems. Mathematicians to conduct numerical analysis, programming and trajectory plotting.
