2012 Student Feedback

"I learned a great deal about remote sensing, particularly microwave imagery. I also enjoyed being able to present my own research to an audience."

"I learned more about remote sensing, all the resources that are available for this puepose, and I think that it is fascinating."

"This internship allowed me to broaden my knowledge with more available tools to study hurricanes and their genesis."

"Learning about remote sensing and what it means to meteorology was super cool. I had some minor background but the exposure received through this internship really broadened my horizons regarding the subject."

"The instructors were very helpful and made sure we understood everything to the best of our ability. I would highly recommend this program to any meteorology major."
