Pursuit Aerospace

“My advisor, at Pursuit Aerospace, took great care in giving me tasks to teach me different aspects of the plant and department I was in. He insisted I attend meetings on subjects I may not be able to contribute anything too, but were invaluable in the information I could learn. Besides the daily meetings, my time was mainly consumed by large projects, with daily pop up tasks being rare. Focusing on these large projects allowed me to dive in fully to what I was working on. One of the first tasks he gave me was to simplify a series of operational sketches; each step of this project taught me crucial lessons about what the operators have to focus on, what the process engineers have to focus on and how to communicate with our quality department and supervisors. This and the other big projects encouraged me to work with other departments and to communicate with operators. The focus of not narrowing my view to the office space and understanding the people doing the job gave me a lot of insight into the factories daily operations. ”

“The job was rewarding and never dull. The more time you put into your work the better the lives of other people in the plant and that feels great no matter how small the task. Overall, it was a great experience and I am so glad I did this internship.”
