Sandia's educational institutes provide unique opportunities for hands-on
experience in such areas as cyber security, computer science problem solving,
pulsed power study, microsystems operations, nanoscale engineering, homeland
security, and modeling and simulation. Institutes, which typically include
such activities as workshops, lectures, and courses supplied by Sandia, allow
for experience-based learning, collaboration, and the chance to work on projects
that complement your university studies.
