Industrial Engineering Co-Op
My experience
Overview
Process improvements for workline, I examined different crews and found ways for them to move tools, rearrange steps in the process, etc. to shorten their work time. Material handling - I looked at where material was arranged across the plant and did cost-benefit analyses to try and move the material to reduce motion waste and inventory levels.
The work was very independent, I was often finding my own project. I didn't really have any peer co-workers, and it was a little lonely. They informed me that I would have a full-time position and then they didn't follow through on the offer.
Would recommend it to people who...
Want hands-on manufacturing experience working in a rough environment
Would NOT recommend it to people who...
Are looking for a desk/data analytics job
