U.S. Army Research Laboratory Directed Energy Visiting Scholars Program 2012

Abstract

Five students participated in U.S. Army Research Laboratory s ( ARL s) 2012 summer program for directed energy visiting scholars two were graduate students; three undergraduates. Their majors include physics, electrical and computer engineering, optical engineering, pure mathematics and computer science. All were not capable of contributing to ARL s high energy laser program; however, they all had the opportunity for a valuable research experience in the areas of lasers, optics, and spectroscopy. Our experience continues to confirm the importance of undergraduate and graduate program to proactively train the future Department of Defense workforce.
