Sandia National Laboratories in California recently presented its annual Math and Science Awards to 22 young women from area high schools. The event celebrates the academic accomplishments of the recipients and their great potential as they prepare for the next phase of their lives.

“Science, technology, and engineering are so important for this country as we move forward,” says Bob Carling, director of Sandia’s Transportation Energy Center. “We hope every one of these award recipients continues to have the same enthusiasm they’ve already shown for these subjects.”

Now in its 22nd year, the Math and Science Awards program is sponsored by the Sandia Women’s Connection. The event was held once again on the Sandia campus, in the Combustion Research Computation and Visualization (CRCV) building at the Livermore Valley Open Campus (LVOC).
