Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
LLNL is self-described as "a premier research and development institution for science and technology applied to national security."[1] It is responsible for ensuring that the nation’s nuclear weapons remain "safe, secure, and reliable" through application of advances in science, engineering, and technology. The laboratory also applies its special expertise and multidisciplinary capabilities to preventing the proliferation and use of weapons of mass destruction, and to bolstering homeland security. Those capabilities are also utilized in programs in non-defense areas such as basic science, energy, environmental science, and biosciences. From Wikipedia

I worked as a summer intern in the computation directorate. I had an awesome experience at LLNL. The people I worked with were very helpful and just great people in general. Every intern gets assigned a project to complete over the summer, and I was lucky enough to have a wonderful mentor who gave me an interesting and challenging project where I worked with generating vector graphics in real-time.
I really enjoyed the academic and research-oriented environment. I would highly recommend attending the seminars that are provided for the summer students to learn more about what new research and cutting-edge technologies are being developed at the Lab. Here are some examples of seminar topics: details about how LLNL is constructing the largest laser in the world, discussions about how to achieve controlled nuclear fusion, supercomputing (they have the fastest supercomputer in the world), the forensic science center, and more.
