    Engineering Jobs/Internships

    Well I know there are some medical rabroadmers here, so I am hoping there are some engineers as well.
    I am going into my third year of studying mechanical engineering and am starting the whole internship application process. Ideally I would like to work at a company where I can work in the field as much as possible.

    The companies I am applying to so far:
    Edison (socal power company)
    Boeing
    Raytheon
    Northrop Grumman
    Disney

    If anyone has any success in this field share your story.
    Thanks SOrabers

    I had a family meraber who worked for ratheon, one of those guys who never had to study even in college and university, huge intelligence and potential; died at 39 from a heart attack.

    the interns that work for my step-dad at boeing get payed ~$20 an hour, and they're basically working on projects non-stop. not a bad deal.

    Boeing would be great to get into, not only is it a great experience but it would be good to have on your resume. What are the intern openings looking like at those companies?

    Those all sound like good engineering companies to get internships at. However, the aerospace industry fluctuates pretty dramatically so while those companies typically hire a lot of engineers for internships, right now it may not be the easiest place to find one.

    Nevertheless, it doesn't hurt to apply to as many places as possible and work on your resume/interviews. I went to a job fair on campus and that's where I was able to do a lot of networking and interviews. I'm sure you probably know all of this but I just figured I'd share what worked for me.

    Good luck!

    I

    Schools not bad I go to ucla so its pretty rigorous but not bad, my bro just graduated here and is going to med school, he studies a lot more. I recommend engineering over physics. W physics you really need grad school and has a lot of complex theories that ate very interesting but I'd rather design / build things .

    Jobs are actually looking good for this field, and I have connections at Boeing and Edison.
