“My internship experience at the Technical Center has allowed me to further use my talents and increase my personal development. Throughout my internship, I worked with the Engineered Surfaces Division in the AWTP portfolio in an R&D role. My project consisted of developing a white coating process on the lab scale to have a wheel prototype created near the end of 2016. The most valuable experience was being able to tour the Cleveland plant and see the lab scale prototypes come to life. Working with all the experts around ATC has been an experience I would not find elsewhere.”

“My internship experience exposed me to various people, applications, and processing techniques that have broaden my interests. While at the Technical Center, I was involved in the development of cutting edge materials science technology, all while being exposed to various businesses, industries, and applications. The large breadth of applications and interests at the Technical Center encourages employees to be diverse, engaging, and knowledgeable. I am happy to have been a part of the innovation, engineered.”

“As a Continuous Improvement Intern, I was able to gain experience in a developmental role. Working at Cleveland Works, I was challenged everyday trying to make the plant the best it can be. My projects included establishing an organized system for the saw templates as well as maintaining a database for the new Faro Inspection System. My most valuable experience was being able to work and learn from the different departments in the company. In every project, I worked with engineers, operators, metallurgists and so much more! Everyone was extremely helpful and wanted to see you succeed. It was very nice to be in such a welcoming environment where you are pushed to your full potential.”

“My internship gave me the opportunity to learn specifically about superalloys and investment casting, something that is only briefly covered in school. This summer, I interned at the Research Center in Whitehall, Michigan with the Technical Services group. Within Technical Services, I was splitting time between working on materials related projects and nondestructive evaluation (NDE). Through my own projects and those I assisted with, I learned to be patient and flexible with the timeline of the projects. Overall, I truly enjoyed the challenge; working on real projects and given responsibilities that challenge me to put my prior knowledge to use, while also drawing from the various resources around me.”

“This summer, I interned with GBS for the Capital Procurement Team where my tasks ranged from writing a standard operating procedure to conducting analyses on capital project spend. My internship gave me the opportunity to get exposure to a little bit of everything that goes on in capital procurement. In addition, I was able to visit Cleveland Works, attend a supplier visit in Irwin, and a supplier auction event. I even volunteered with Tree Pittsburgh! This was my first supply chain internship, so it was a whole new experience for me. Getting a taste of what working in the “real world” at a large company has been the most valuable takeaway for me. As a supply chain major, it couldn’t get much better than this!”

“After interning with the company last summer and having a great experience, I knew I wanted to return for another summer. One thing that drew me to the company in the first place was the many opportunities to grow both as an employee and as a person. As a finance intern, I worked both with HQ and Davenport finance teams developing a Management Accounting Playbook and documenting the returned metal authorization (RMA) process. The most valuable experience was talking with my mentors and supervisors and learning from their experiences.”
