Career opportunites come in many shapes and forms. For the student wanting to investigate the world of research, one of the best ways to experience research is to be a part of it during a summer's long research intern program. Michigan State Univesity's Department of Mechanical Engineering provides just such an opportunity linking faculty mentors to students who want to gain insights into what research in really like.

 To get a taste of what is being done during these research intensive summers, Take a look at the research posters produced by past summer interns. These and many more topics can be investigated at MSU.
