Something Special for Engineers & Scientists With Special Abilities It's easy to preach, it's harder to practice! It's easy to preach the need for creativity in science and technology . . . it's harder to maintain an environment in industry which truly encourages initiative and fosters creative solutions. We do maintain this environment and have something special to offer engineers and scientists with unusual capabilities and experience. General Atomic Division of General Dynamics is located in San Diego where you will find pleasant living throughout the year. Excellent nearby academic institutions offer broad opportunities for graduate work.
