2015 Intern Spotlight: Miles Latham

Miles Latham
Home Institution: Duke University
Major:
International Comparative Studies

” Working at CNS was a phenomenal opportunity for me to gain domain-specific knowledge in the nonproliferation field that is not available at my home university, while working to advance research in areas that interested me. The CNS faculty are all tremendously helpful, and make it clear from the beginning that they genuinely value the fresh perspective interns bring into the program and see them as far more than bodies to do busy work. Working at CNS made me feel more like a visiting faculty member than an undergraduate intern, while still giving me the opportunity to learn from the faculty’s far superior domain knowledge. That is really a unique combination, and one that other programs simply do not compare to.”
