Abstract
During the Industry Technical Internship, students will have a real-world full-time technical experience with a company or institution in areas where optics and photonics are enabling technologies. Students will acquire technical experience and skills in a manufacturing, industrial, or research setting. This internship will also give the students feedback on their strengths and weaknesses working in an environment that requires teamwork, respect for authority and experience, and cooperation. Students will be given an opportunity to hone their “soft skills”, and in so doing be better prepared for paying careers when they graduate. The coordination with the internship center will be done through the faculty assigned to this course. In addition, the student will have a mentor at the company where he/she performs the internship. The mentor’s input will be part of the evaluation process of the course. Requirements OPSC 102, OPSC 110
