Ted McHardy and Jared Marquis selected for Office of Naval Research Internship

Ted McHardy and Jared Marquis, graduate students in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences, have been selected as interns for the 2015 Office of Naval Research (ONR) Naval Research Enterprise Internship Program (NREIP). NREIP provides an opportunity for students to participate in research at a Department of Navy (DoN) laboratory during the summer.

The goals of NREIP are to encourage participating students to pursue science and engineering careers, to further education via mentoring by laboratory personnel and their participation in research, and to make them aware of DoN research and technology efforts, which can lead to employment within the DoN.

NREIP provides competitive research internships to approximately 275 college students (200 undergraduate students and 75 graduate students) each year. Participating students spend ten weeks during the summer conducting research at approximately 29 DoN laboratories.

Congratulations Ted and Jared!
