“I liked how much responsibility they gave me and how my projects were my own, I really felt like a member of the team. Full time engineers were very interested in getting to know me and were very willing to offer guidance. I felt very integrated into the company and could definitely envision myself working there full time. ”

“I enjoyed getting to be a part of day-to-day activities in the fast-paced environment of manufacturing. I was able to attend and participate in daily safety walks, discussions about improvements and 5S implementations, and I helped to work on pertinent action items. Some examples of projects I was able to work were implementing a dynamic level indicator for tanks that are used to make multiple materials and therefore require multiple safetop thresholds. I also worked on creating a spreadsheet to populate all of our in-process sampling data, analyzing the trends that are seen for different tests, and making process improvements to reduce the number of failed tests. Lastly, I ran a batch with a modified batch sheet to see if we could increase the yield by adding in the diluent at the end rather than in the middle of the batch. ”
