The Consortium Research Fellows Program (CRFP) is a
partnership between the Consortium of Universities of the
Washington Metropolitan Area and several Department of
Defense agencies. The CRFP fosters a strong relationship
between the higher education community and DoD.

Students work in Defense settings, become more
knowledgeable about research and development,
and increase the country's pool of scientific talent.
Professors lend their specialized expertise to DoD
projects and widen the scope of their research.
Government researchers accomplish their goals more
efficiently and develop new areas of inquiry. Transfer
of technology accelerates. When the higher education
and Federal research communities cooperate,
everyone benefits.
