The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has announced that it is once again accepting applications for its Honors Engineer Program.
Initiated in 2018, the one-year development program gives selected candidates an opportunity to work with FCC personnel on innovative issues in the communications and high-tech arenas, including 5G communications technology, the national deployment of broadband services, and communications technologies intended to improve access to those with disabilities. Other areas of potential focus include communications technologies critical to public safety, homeland security, healthcare, energy, education, and transportation.
In addition, those selected to participate in the Honors Engineer Program will be eligible for continued employment at the agency.
Application to the FCC’s Honors Engineer Program is open to recent college graduates with an engineering degree as well as current engineering students slated to graduate this year. Click here for more information about the Program and instructions on how to apply.
The deadline for filing an application is December 2, 2022, or once the FCC receives 175 applications, whichever occurs first.
