As part of its Next‐Generation Safeguards Initiative (NGSI), DOE/NNSA’s Office of Nuclear Safeguards and Security has funded each year since 2008 a summer internship program in International Safeguards Policy jointly organized by the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies at the Monterey Institute of International Studies (MIIS) and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). Graduate students selected for the program first attend an intensive one‐week course in Monterey on International Safeguards Policy and then, with NNSA‐funded stipend support from MIIS, spend a 10‐week internship at LLNL learning more about international nuclear safeguards and interacting with LLNL mentors and other Laboratory staff. As one component of the internship experience, each intern undertakes a project designed to expand knowledge of international safeguards or other relevant nuclear nonproliferation topics, culminating in a final presentation and paper. Attached are slides from this year’s intern project presentations, held August 16, 2013 at LLNL and attended by LLNL staff and by Bryan Lee from CNS. In the course of their work at LLNL, students had access only to unclassified, open source information, and no classified or controlled information was used in their projects. The views and recommendations in the slides are strictly their own, and should not be construed to represent views or conclusions of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the Department of Energy, the U.S. Government, or the MIIS James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies.
