Over sixty percent presented their research results.Students self image and employment plans are presented in Figure 6. Half of the students indicated thatthe experience changed how they envisioned themselves as scientists. Seventy-five percent indicatedplans to seek employment in industry prior to the summer experience, while only twenty-five percentremained with those plans after the summer experience. Responses moved to going to graduate school,other plans, and unsure.
