Overview

Credence Management Solutions, LLC, is seeking a Network Administrator who will be primarily responsible for supporting AFIT/EN Neat WPAFB, OH. 

AFIT's Graduate School of Engineering and Management focuses on high-quality graduate education and research. EN works on the leading edges of the technological disciplines that keep the Air Force dominance in defending the nation. The school serves the Air Force as its graduate institution of choice for engineering, applied sciences, and selected areas of management. The appeal for the school’s distinct educational opportunities is widespread and attracts high quality students from the other United States (US) armed services, Government agencies both inside and outside the Department of Defense (DoD), coalition countries, and US citizens (civilians) from across the country.

In support of this mission, the graduate school offers a variety of programs leading to the award of master’s and doctoral degrees, as well as graduate certificate programs. AFIT/EN maintains a strong applied research component through our research centers, some of which have been nationally recognized by the Air Force. The graduate school is unique among graduate schools in the country: it is a graduate-only, research-based institution – in the company of only a very small number of other institutions in this category. Being a graduate-only institution provides our students with desirable advantages: a more personalized educational experience with a student to faculty ratio of approximately 6:1 in master’s degree programs; academic programs with focus; and research with real-world relevance.
