Quality Engineer Intern

Working in a big factory setting, I was able to observe the food manufacturing process and familiarize myself with the intricate details and process flow diagrams. This was a great opportunity to put my chemical engineering curriculum to the test.

I had great supervisors and I learned a ton. I wish I had more time with this company to take on a bigger project.

Always have an open mind when going into internships and never turn down a learning opportunity. It is so important to gain as many skills as possible so when you are tasked with your own project you know what questions to ask and which ones have already been answered.
