It's a big ticket item. Over five years, several big departments spent three quarters of a billion dollars to sponsor students and recent post-grads in science and engineering. They get to work in federal agencies like Defense, Energy and Health and Human Services. The program is called the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education. The Government Accountability Office took a look at the program and found some things that need tightening up. John Neumann, director of natural resources and environment issues at the GAO, told Federal Drive with Tom Temin about the Oak Ridge Institute and what GAO found there.
