The GEMS programs at White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), New Mexico are a joint/collaborative effort between the Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM)/Data and Analysis Center (D&AC) and the U.S. Army Test & Evaluation Command (ATEC). 

Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM)/Data and Analysis Center’s (D&AC) mission is to ensure that U.S. military personnel and equipment survive and function effectively in hostile circumstances. ATEC’s mission is to provide the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Department of Defense, and other customers with high-quality resources and services for experimentation, test, research, assessment, development, and training in support of the Nation at war. DEVCOM, D&AC & ATEC both employ many engineers, scientists, physicists and military personnel to accomplish their missions.  These same employees coordinate and conduct our GEMS programs.

*NOTE: There will be no stipends for students who participate in GEMS virtually in summer 2022.
