Email from a recent Michigan Tech grad…

I’m Audra Thurston, a recent Michigan Tech grad in chemical engineering. I currently work at Calumet Electronics Corporation in Calumet, Michigan as a process engineer. Calumet Electronics is one of the nation’s leading manufacturers of printed circuit boards. We specialize in high-velocity, high-performance printed circuit board (PCB) engineering and fabrication solutions in North America with a strong focus on aerospace, medical, defense, and industrial sectors.

Calumet Electronics will be recruiting at this year’s Fall 2018 Career Fair for internships and possibly full-time positions in manufacturing, operations, quality, and process engineering. We will be hosting an information session on Thursday, September 27^th from 6-7pm in the MUB for students that want to learn more about working and living in the Keweenaw. Pizza and pop will be provided. More information can be found on MTU’s Handshake: https://app.joinhandshake.com/events/210733.

If you can pass along this information to your students, that would be great! In the past, we have had environmental interns work with our expansive wastewater treatment system.

I will be attending the career fair at Michigan Tech this fall on behalf of POWER Engineers. As a graduate of Michigan Tech, I am eager to revisit the campus and talk to students about their future. In our Ann Arbor office, we currently have open internship/co-op and entry level full-time positions for Civil/Structural Engineering students who are interested in working in the Energy/Power Delivery industry. After joining POWER once I finished graduate school in the Spring of 2015, I find the work in the industry to be challenging and rewarding. I also found that Michigan Tech did a great job preparing me for project specific challenges. At POWER, interns and entry level engineers are challenged and given significant responsibility immediately to help develop their careers in this booming industry. POWER Engineers is an employee-owned company and offers a relaxed work atmosphere. POWER is also one of the largest engineering firms within the Power Delivery industry as we have played a role in many projects around the world.  The link to the open positions is located below. I encourage students to apply, if interested, before the career fair to help streamline the process. Students can contact me with any questions about the open positions prior to the career fair by emailing Thomas.kilpela@powereng.com. I am looking forward to meeting with the faculty and students on campus in a few weeks.
