Department of Defense Internship by Thomas Lucic Jul 16

Interning at the Department of Defense has already proved invaluable experience.  I am a fellow in the Office of Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (AT&L).  The Undersecretary of AT&L reports to the Secretary of Defense and oversees the (A) acquisition of weapons and support systems.  AT&L also has an internal budget of $2 Billion which is spent on (T) technology.  AT&L also oversees (L) logistics.  Within AT&L is the Acquisition Resources & Analysis (ARA) Division which my office is part of.  My office’s title is thus:  Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition Technology and Logistics, Acquisition Resources Analysis/ Resource Analysis or: OUSD AT&L ARA/RA (you have to like acronyms to work at the Pentagon).
