Student Profiles
Mechanical Engineering Technology student, Meghan Puente, worked on a
variety of challenging projects at Energizer, ranging from creating new tools, to
installing a recycling system, to changing machinery to reduce operator downtime.
She was given much responsibility and hit the ground running, working on
substantial projects immediately.
“My role as an engineering co-op was no different than the other engineers at the
plant, which gave me the necessary experience and confidence.”
Rebecca Williams, Electromechanical Engineering, performed
and tracked a series of seven tests on the main engine start of a
military cargo helicopter for Hamilton Sundstrand. She performed
data analysis, coordinated and participated in company-wide
meetings, and acted as a liaison between Hamilton Sundstrand
and its clients.
Most of Eric Schmidt’s, Civil Engineering Technology,
work at Pratt & Whitney has consisted of parking lot
redesign while the company’s campus is under
construction. “I have been on the jobsite almost every day
since construction began and, along with another
co-worker and a contracted survey team, [I have provided]
maps and information to help the contracted construction
team.”
For her co-op with the MBTA, Madison King, Electronic Engineering
Technology, has been responsible for testing, monitoring, and
implementing solutions for the entire fleet of Blue Line subway cars.
One of her biggest projects was working on the auxiliary power supply,
which can sometimes overheat. King studied the problems and worked
to redesign the thermal system to make incidents less likely to happen.
