Physical Measurement Laboratory

Nanoscale Device Characterization Division

NRC Postdoctoral Opportunities in the Nanoscale Device Characterization Division

The National Research Council (NRC) operates Research Associateship Programs in cooperation with a number of sponsoring federal laboratories and research organizations. For NIST, the NRC Research Associate Program consists of a national competition in which outstanding scientists and engineers with recent PhDs are awarded postdoctoral fellowships. Opportunities exist through this program to work on cutting edge research with leading scientists in laboratories across NIST.
