Internships

Steve Anton, Tennessee Technological University, described his experience with Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Dynamics Summer School. The 9-week intensive summer program assigns a staff mentor to students and allows students to learn more about CPS and carry out research. Anton observed that some students enter the school relatively unfamiliar with CPS, and many are unfamiliar with key topics such as sensing, data acquisition, and signal processing. The students participate in week-long tutorials on sensors, controls, signal processing, and embedded systems. Students also participate in laboratory research, gaining familiarity with research practices and laboratory equipment, and develop teamwork and technical writing skills. Because it is designed to be multidisciplinary, the program works well to break down boundaries among mechanical, electrical, and computer engineers and scientists. An additional benefit to students’ future careers in CPS is that they develop contacts in the CPS technical community.
