They enjoysummer internship in several national research and development (R & D) laboratories, like Sandia,Lawrence Livermore, Lawrence Berkeley, etc. spread out throughout USA. Dr. Jeffrey Estes of PacificNorthwest National Laboratory, notes, “Connecting students to the world of science and technology thatexists beyond the academic classroom holds great potential for helping the students decide on and pursuea career pathway. Whether that path leads to a career in research, teaching, business, or a
