University of Dayton UDRI Applied Mechanics

Undergraduate Research Assistant

May 2023 • Dayton, OH

What I liked

Excellent work environment for anyone interested in aerospace and materials research. Lots of hands on experience. Lots of practical work using engineering software such as MATLAB, Abaqus, and Solidworks.

What I wish was different

One thing I wish had been different was the amount of hours I was able to work. Due to some complications, I was limited to 35 hours a week. My supervisors were super flexible, however, and I was very happy with the schedule we were able to work out.

Advice

Just be willing to learn and gain experience. I gained a large number of skills from this internship thanks to the help and experience of those in the applied mechanics division.
