Students will participate in an off-campus engineering internship, applying course knowledge and skills to problems within a work environment. Internship placements must be established prior to enrollment in this course in consultation with careers office and/or science/engineering faculty member. May be repeated for credit. Permission of instructor required. Graded CR/NC.

Application of engineering principles to solve real world problems in an actual industrial setting while earning a wage. Students are expected to work part-time during the semester for an engineering company under the supervision of an engineer on-site. Restricted to engineering majors with junior standing and engineering faculty approval. Graded CR/NC.
