"The opportunity to work with
professional researchers at national labs
is something for which I will forever
be grateful." |

|
"I enjoy the flexibility
of the AFCI program. It has
allowed me to focus on
exactly what I wanted, and
it has allowed me to study
what I wanted to study." |

"I very much enjoyed my time
at Los Alamos. I'd love to go
back there! I liked the working
and outdoors environment of
Northern New Mexico." |

|
"The AFCI has proven to be a
wonderful opportunity for me
to study in a field that may
never have been introduced
to me otherwise. It has been
an educational and enlightening
experience." |

"The AFCI fellowship gave me the
opportunity to work at Los Alamos
National Laboratory. At the lab, I
made invaluable connections that
not only helped me with my research,
but will also help me to find future
jobs and school funding. My national
laboratory experience also gave me
a chance to see world-class research
first-hand." |
