The criteria for acceptance of a student into the program are a high level of academic performance and evidence of sound communication skills. Additionally, students identify one faculty member as a reference that can vouch for the individual's abiltiy to perform. We also ask that the mentor submit a brief evaluation of the student upon completion of the job term. Resumes of the students in the program are enclosed on an additional web page. A faculty member will follow up with a phone call to all interested industrial partners, helping to arrange interviews between students and companies with matching interests, as needed.
Students gain valuable industrial experience and fresh perspectives on their university education.
A program description is included. Please conatact Professor Clayton Crowe or Professor Chuck Pezeshki if you have any questions. They should have been sent to you in the letter from the Department.
