The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is a Department of Defense (DoD) agency that is structured to respond to existing and emerging ballistic missile threats to the United States, its forward deployed forces, our allies, and our friends around the world. Our stated mission is “to deliver what we promise and what we promise is missile defense…that responds to a changing and growing threat.” To achieve this mission, MDA works closely with industry, colleges and universities, and other government agencies in the development of sophisticated ballistic missile defense weapons systems. MDA also supports advanced research in such areas as aerospace, lasers, communications, information technology and electronics. When you join the Missile Defense Agency as a student employee, you will become part of a workforce of dedicated civilian and military employees and numerous contractors. While members of the MDA workforce can be found in four locations—Arlington, Virginia; Huntsville, Alabama; Colorado Springs, Colorado and Anchorage, Alaska—the majority of the staff works at the Virginia location, near our Nation’s Capital.
