How Companies Can Engage with E&TIM Students

Summer Internships:

All E&TIM students are required to fulfill an internship in a business environment. Our students' technical expertise spans a wide range of disciplines and E&TIM is actively seeking companies who are interested in offering internships.

Product or Process Innovation Projects:
Our goal for the E&TIM program extends beyond the classroom which involves industrial clients. Working with faculty, students will develop innovation projects for business, based on technical products or processes.

Innovation Management in Practice Seminars:
Practical experience adds value to education - success stories, best practices and lessons learned. The E&TIM program is soliciting industry professionals to serve as contributing speakers, providing case studies on innovation management for our students.

 

We welcome the chance to discuss the best way to work with your organization. Please contact Eden Fisher with any opportunities or questions you might have.
