Getting involved with clubs and showing my collaborative and team skills definitely helped.
I have much more knowledge about the process of pursuing a PhD.
AMD is very rich in diversification and co-op activities.
This internship had me undergo an extensive training process, where I was able to understand the ethical map of the research process.
Two of the most interesting aspects of my internship were having the opportunity to analyze engine test data as well as filter and sort fault codes on various engine test bed machines.
I was one of the few interns in my department, which allowed me to really integrate myself into the company.
Some campus activities I participate in like the Virtus and the Black Engineers Society prepared me for my internship because they taught me a good deal about professionalism and professional communication.
Surgeons from around the world visit our lab to practice surgeries on cadavers. I get to help with the surgery and explain our tools and implants.
When I got the offer I was really excited as I I had never thought I'd get a chance to work in an autonomous car industry. It has now opened up a new career path for me.
I was already interested in project/product management on the development side of things, and this reinforced that if possible I want to focus my efforts on ideas/products that advance us socially, environmentally, or medically.
