DIRECTED ENERGY PROFESSIONAL SOCIETY Directed Energy Education Workshop 2010 19 November 2010 Bethesda, Maryland Education is vital to the Directed Energy community. Fostering the professional growth of current workers in the field and increasing the number of young, new members in the community are important DEPS educational goals. This was the tenth Workshop in a series of DE Education Workshops to advance these goals. The Workshops considers current and future Directed University of New Mexico Ph.D. student Carrie Noren at work in Air Force Research Laboratory laser lab Energy education programs around the country. Support for the Workshop has been provided by the High Energy Laser Joint Technology Office and by DEPS. The scope of the Workshop includes: Programs from K-12 through graduate/post-graduate studies and technical vocational training Professional continuing education Student motivators (scholarships, fellowships, recognitions) Summer internship programs Curriculum development The Workshop was held on Friday 19 November in Bethesda, Maryland.
