Mechanical Engineers, i need an internship with you! Oregon

jeeptorino68 · 10-15-2008, 01:05 PM

Hey everyone my name is Kyle and I am a Mechanical Engineering student at Oregon State Univ. Im a senior and will have a 5th senior year too, so Im not done with school anytime soon, but i transferred so thats why Im behind.

I was kind of set up with a company to do an internship with them over the summer or one term of school or both, but then they had to make cut backs and don't have the money for an intern any more, or at least for now, the market may change by spring or summer.

what i need help with is finding Oregon, Washington, or even Idaho based companies that would be willing to take on an ME intern. If it is near Corvallis OR then i can do it during the school year, other wise it will have to be during the summer.

If any of you are MEs (and im sure many of you are) what is your company/ how can i contact you or them to get something lined up. I am very interested and excited to get into an internship.

if not, what companies do you guys think of that are based in Oregon, such as Warn or Freightliner.

Thanks for the help everyone.

Does your school have any kind of career development center? You can submit your resume to them and they can help you find an internship
