Executive Summary
- 1. Executive Summary: Evelyn Wheeler Graphics and Communications Intern, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department Supervisor and Mentor, Teresa McAllister Overview As the Graphics and Communications Intern for the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department, my main job was to communicate departmental accomplishments and announcements via several mediums. Some of these include, but are not limited to, the TV monitor in Earle Hall, the Chemical Engineering Facebook page, the Graduate and Undergraduate brochures, and banners along the hallway of Earle Hall depicting outreach work, research areas, fellowships, and graduate descriptions. On a daily basis, I would coordinate with my supervisor to be informed of new accomplishments within the department, which I would announce using a template on Adobe InDesign. With an array of photos in the shared drive and a short description of the award or event usually received via email, I would create an announcement and resize the document on Photoshop to be acceptable for the monitor and for Faceboook. I enjoyed creating the TV monitor schedules by rearranging the orders and setting dates and durations for each post I made. This was something I typically did on a daily basis, but there were many other things done throughout my internship. My supervisor Terri coordinates events within the department as well, many of which I was able to help with this semester. There was an AIChE conference in San Francisco in the month of November that I created a pull-up banner for. I also designed from scratch three large banners for the Homecoming tailgate this year. Terri gave me specific jobs to do within the department, which often involved reaching out to students and faculty for information. For example, when I created the brochures and posters and needed specific information from people, I reached out to them in order to gain the proper information and print out the posters for display in Earle. I am extremely proud of the way my posters turned out, as they are hanging in the hallways and I receive many compliments on them. Skills Gained I have learned a lot about the Adobe Creative Cloud software. My classes are focused on these programs as well, so I have been able to relate what I am learning in class back to what I have been doing in my internship. My future classes will most likely require the same skills, and I am glad to have already been able to develop them through firsthand experience.
- 2. Working in this department has allowed me to gain many communication skills. I have learned how to be confident in my reaching out to others when I need certain information, and have thus made connections and relationships within the department. I have enjoyed getting to know the faculty and graduate students. Communicating with my mentor inspires me to seek constructive feedback and improve upon my work at each possible opportunity. Besides the communication competency, I have also gained collaboration skills. Genuine relationships and positive interactions within the department have been so valuable to me in this internship. The network of relationships I have become a part of within this department makes it that much easier for me to succeed at my work. I also had a lot of contact with Campus Banner and Design for several of the banners and posters I created. This gave me direct insight into not only the inter-departmental relationships that I observed on a daily basis, but valuable campus-wide collaboration that exposed me to all the wonderful programs we have on campus and are able to utilize in many ways. Mentor Feedback My mentor was extremely helpful and understanding throughout my journey as an intern. Though I have experience with InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop from past and current Graphic Communications and Communication classes, it is so much different when you are using these programs in a professional setting. It was very comforting to have Terri at my side introducing me to all the different aspects of these programs that she has found useful in the department. Terri reviewed my work always before it was posted, giving me direct feedback and constructive criticism when necessary. Terri was very accommodating to my school schedule, exams, and genuinely enjoyed hearing about how my week was going or what I was doing the upcoming weekend. I think it is so important to have this kind of honest and overall positive relationship in the workplace. The Next Step The internship was offered to me for another semester, but I will not be at Clemson in the Spring of 2017 due to a Study Abroad trip in Europe. Luckily, one of my fellow Communication Studies majors is perfect for the position, and Terri has interviewed her and offered her my current position for the time which I am gone. I hope to return in the summer, though the department is still working out a budget for a summer intern. If I am not able to work for ChBE this summer, I will no doubt search for another, similar internship. My favorite part of this internship was working with event planning, so I have been inspired to pursue that in a future internship. I thought it was fun to work with all the Adobe Creative Cloud software as well, so any internship involving these programs really appeals to me as well.
