23.206.2Abstract Participants in this study were student interns and mentors taking part in the 2012, 10-week Langley Aerospace Research Student Scholars (LARSS) summer internship program inHampton, Virginia. The study examined mentors and student interns’ ratings of theirpreparedness in basic knowledge and skills. The study focused on three primary areas: 1) overallevaluation of knowledge and skills by mentors and interns; 2) male and female interns’perceptions of their own skills in these key areas; and 3) mentors’ perceptions of their studentinterns’ knowledge and skills in the same areas by gender. Overall mentors were more positiveabout their interns’ improvement in 12 of 17 areas assessed than were the student interns. Therewere no
