T

he internship at Advance Auto Parts truly exceeded my expectations and
was, by far, the best choice for my summer internship. I was fortunate
to work in several departments-on financial Excel sheets, electric vehicle
research initiatives and a marketing project to appeal to millennials. We
learned so much more than we could have in a classroom during the
10 weeks. Getting such a broad overview of the various departments
that make a Fortune 300 company tick was extremely enlightening.

T

his summer I was given the opportunity to work with Federal-Mogul
Powertrain in their product development department on the heavy duty
pistons team. While there, I was able to gain knowledge and experience
that directly applied to my field of study, Materials Science and Engineering.
The projects I was able to work on exposed me to material that I will be
able to take back and apply in the classroom at Michigan Tech. These funds
allowed me to save up my earnings so I can continue to fund my education.

M

y internship this summer was located in Northern California. This
was an extreme difference for me because originally I am from Cape
Cod, but have been in Kansas for my schooling. During my internship,
I was helping the Cobra Experience with creating a database of all the
Shelby Cobras. This internship experience was a lot of fun and I learned a
lot about Cobras! The funding assistance that was provided to me helped
me with expenses such as rent, gas, food, and traveling expenses.
