Melene Agakanian '13 and Elizabeth Spiers '13 were two of more than 70 high-school students who participated in the Boeing Engineering Summer High School Internship Program in 2012.

Melene and Elizabeth spent 125 to 150 hours at Boeing's internship hub in El Segundo over six to eight weeks, working with Boeing engineers on their aerospace projects. Elizabeth received special mention in the program's newsletter for her work on an Excel spreadsheet that better organizes part-procurement data. "The goal is that if someone were to change the status of a part, the attached graphs would automatically adjust to the change," she said in the newsletter.

Melene and Elizabeth, along with high-school students from across the Los Angeles and Orange County area, also had the opportunity to meet and hear from NASA astronaut Jack Fischer, as well as to tour Boeing's labs and facilities.
