Michael Nguyen
Home Institution: University of Oregon
“I am working on a project to model a Chinese short-range ballistic missile attack on Taiwan. The project will examine the implications of increased missile quality and quantity, as well as any mitigating effects such as passive or active Taiwanese defensive measures, including various missile defense systems.”

Dmitri Goudkov   Home Institution: Williams College  "I've been working with Amin Tarzi, Senior Research Associate, on Russian-Iranian relations in the field of nonproliferation. I'm trying to answer the question why Russia sells arms and nuclear technologies to Iran, its immediate neighbor."

Derek Turner
Home Institution: University of Colorado
“I am working under the supervision of Dr. Moltz, Director of NISNP, on compiling information on nations with space launch capabilities and treaties related to arms in space and ballistic missile defenses, as well as researching the history of the militarization of space. The internship has proved valuable in receiving direct experience in international security issues and independent research techniques.”

Anne Gibson   Home Institution: Pomona College  "I have helped with research on several projects. One such project is a debate simulation on the International Code of Conduct against Ballistic Missile Proliferation to be held at the upcoming US-China conference in Beijing. I have also done some research on deterrence theory, leading in to my own research project on Japanese views of deterrence."
