Multidisciplinary Graduate Degree Program

This degree program is targeted at two distinct groups of students.  The first group is made up of LANL TSM’s pursuing advanced degrees.  To date, over 50 graduate classes have been offered for the LANL staff either live or through distance learning infrastructure.  Six LANL staff have been accepted into graduate degree program and more than 100 staff members have taken these courses.  By 2010, four TSMs have received their M.S. degree from UCSD.  The second group is made up of traditional full-time graduate students at UCSD, and as such, this program provides a mechanism by which students attending the LADSS as well as other LANL GRA’s can stay engaged with LANL throughout their graduate school career.  It is anticipated this continued engagement will greatly enhance the recruiting mission of the EI.
