The Repperger Research Internship Program was developed in honor of the late Dr. Daniel W. Repperger, who was one of the Air Force Research Laboratory’s top scientists and mentor for many young engineers and scientists.

Repperger’s significant research accomplishments helped advance the performance of Air Force airmen and the field of human-centered research. His most significant accomplishment was the impact he had as a kind and caring mentor for many young Air Force scientists and science and engineering students.
