Well, due to a scheduling debacle and my current lack of engineering experience, I'm looking for a spring/summer Co-op or Internship.

I'm a Mechanical Engineering Major going for Bachelors, Masters, and a Minor in aeronautical engineering. I'd like to do Automotive Aero, but right now I need experience, cause finding a Co-op that specific is kind of a long shot.

So do any of you engineers have Co-op's at your company, or do you know of an automotive company that I could look into? Thanks for all of your help.

Sorry about the spelling of Lockheed, at least I got it right in my cover letter I sent to them! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Power generation is also something I'm interested in, espcially some of the new 'green' technologies that are being developed right now. There's a lot of energy out there that we can harness without dirtying up the earth (at least less than coal! sheesh).

I worked for American Electric Power in Columbus Ohio, they are spending around $3B on new scrubber technology in there fossil plant, a Texas utility has submitted papers to build a 3rd nuclear plant in south Texas. We are getting older I'm 60+ but companies are looking for experience, and I make a very good wage. You go for it boy! There is a great future for you in the energy/oil and environmental. The reason we have so many engineers from China, India etc. is because there is a shortage of engineers and technical people in the US and because of this; they are paying very well. I was in the nuclear power business for 25+ years and also the fossil power industry, now I'm working in the oil and gas sector; I never wanted for anything financially, your posting shows your initiative, keep it going and you will go far.
