Defense Intelligence Agency Pat Roberts Intelligence Scholars Program
The Pat Roberts Intelligence Scholar Program is designed to recruit, appoint, and train newly hired entry-level intelligence analysts and to further develop current Defense Intelligence Agency analysts with less than 24 months of service. PRISP enables participants to pursue
studies in critical languages, analysis, collection, intelligence operations, science and technology and information technology specialties that meet Agency requirements.
The following preferred/targeted languages have been identified by DIA as a critical skill within an occupational specialty group and includes: Arabic, Indonesian/Malay, Korean, Chinese, Pashto, Turkic languages (Azerbaijani, Uzbek, Kazakh, Uighur, etc.), Japanese, Kurdish, Tagalog, Hindi, Bengali, Punjabi, Vietnamese, Serbian-Croatian, French (focusing on French speaking Africa), Sub-Saharan African Languages (Swahili, Hausa, Yoruba, etc.), Urdu, Persian-Iranian (Farsi) and Persian-Afghan (Dari).
Scholars are assigned a mentor to guide them in their individually tailored training program. The individual training programs may last up to 12 months and include a monetary incentive not to exceed $25,000 which is used to cover expenses directly related to the individual-based training plan.
Following completion of the Program, all PRISP participants will incur a service obligation to the Intelligence Community. The service obligation for PRISP participants receiving funds for education or training is one and one-half times the length of the education or training program. The PRISP Program Manager will assist you in determining the amount of time owed if applicable.
