The FloridaMakes, Florida Semiconductor Institute (FSI), and Florida Semiconductor Engine (FSE) Internship Program provided us with support through student interns, whose skills, new perspectives, and enthusiasm greatly contributed to our projects. Their efforts not only advanced our short-term objectives but also contributed to reinforcing the foundation for our future success."
