Visiting Research Professors
Closed March 31, 2009
Each year SSI offers one or two visiting research professorships. These are research positions with no teaching and very limited administrative duties. The successful candidate will advance his or her own research agenda while simultaneously producing SSI studies on relevant strategic topics which will be distributed to military leaders, government officials, civilian academics, and the global strategic community.

There are currently no vacancies.
Other Opportunities
External Research Associates Program (ERAP)
SSI uses the ERAP to fund research by scholars who are not affiliated with the U.S. military, the U.S. Government, or for-profit consulting firms. These scholars can be located either in the United States or abroad. ERAP is a contractual relationship rather than a grant. Payment for the research product is provided by the U.S. Government upon completion of the project.
Unsolicited Submissions
If you are affiliated with the U.S. military, the U.S. Government, or for-profit consulting firms we are able to make your research available, but it is non-compensated and may or may not be an official SSI monograph. Submissions must be a response to one or more topics found in our annual Key Strategic Issues List.
Internships
At present SSI does not have interns or research assistants. Please do not attempt to apply or send resumes unless you see this section changed.
