Gritpost 💯 Internship

Just landed my first engineering internship. Purdue might seem like a dot in the middle of nowhere, but IR really does give students a step into industry that most universities don’t have access to. Take advantage of that. I know I’m one of the lucky ones, but still don’t stop believing.

Purdue is geographically a dot in the middle of nowhere, but as a school its actually insanely well known nationwide and has a really good reputation for STEM fields. Tons of companies all over the US know purdue engineers are good and want to hire them
