The AFRL SFFP is managed and administered by Systems Plus, Inc.

Research Fellows are highly encouraged to bring a graduate student with them for the research period.
Research Fellows use the residencies for full-time research in the science, technology, mathematics, and engineering fields engaging in challenging research at some of our nation’s most advanced laboratories and facilities. Information on all aspects of the program can be found on the AFRL SFFP website at U.S. Department of the Air Force Summer Faculty Fellowship Program.
