Corporate Internship Program on Plasma Training in Alabama (CIPTA)

Description

The Alabama NSF EPSCoR FTPP project sponsors a 10-week Corporate Internship Plasma Training in Alabama (CIPTA) for students pursuing degrees in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). Β The program provides students at FTPP partner institutions with quality experiences on plasma technology applications at private companies and allows students the opportunity to establish connections with industry and university professionals. It is open to undergraduate and graduate students in a broad spectrum of disciplines.

The ultimate goal of the program is to engage a diverse, educated, and skilled pool of scientists and engineers to promote long-term relationships between students, academia, and industry to enhance the Alabama workforce. CIPTA will introduce students to industrial plasma technology applications and prepare them for transition into the AL workforce.
