Rothwell J ------------------------------------------------------------ There is
now an e-mail list that you can join to receive updates about internships. If
you are interested in signing up for the list go to https://secure.engr.oregonstate.edu/mailman/listinfo/che-internship-info I
will be sending e-mails when I update the website so you will know when there
is new internship information available. Since the number of new internship postings
is slowing down, I wanted to make sure you were all aware of the careers
center’s summer jobs listings. You can find summer job postings at http://oregonstate.erecruiting.com/stu/home. At the bottom of the page there are links to
summer jobs and student jobs on and off campus. Some of these jobs (especially
the student on-campus positions) are for lab technicians so they could be a
good work experience. So check out the openings if you are still looking for
work this summer. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The timeline is tight and
the work very rewarding and can be done remotely. We are estimating
around 100-150 hours or so would need to be put into this project. The position
will report to me and I would appreciate resumes and a cover letter sent to me
electronically no later than June 7th. Kevin
