NIF & PS Welcomes Summer Scholars

The NIF & Photon Science Directorate is hosting 52 undergraduate and graduate students, U.S. Naval Academy midshipmen, and ROTC cadets from across the country and Canada this summer in the directorate’s annual Summer Scholar program. They are working with mentors on independent research projects ranging from high energy density physics and national security applications to optics, mathematics, and a variety of engineering disciplines. Profiles of several of the students will appear in future editions of NIF & Photon Science News.
