This is a project that has been going on for a while which offers internships to local students. The observatories are a major player in this and, currently, the TMT is the largest contributor to the project's funding. Several of the previous interns have moved into high-tech jobs and many of those are in Hawaii. The public can attend the two events where the interns will present their work, one is in Hilo, the other in Waimea. More details here:
