Abstract: For the past five years, the electrical engineering department at The University of Tulsa has participated in an internship program that is partly funded by the State of Oklahoma and partly by the participating companies.The intent of this internship program is to provide hands-on engineering work experience to undergraduate students.There are currently four companies that are hosting a total of nine students.The host companies are Qual-Tron Inc., Railroad Signal International, Centrilift and John Zink Company.The interns work part-time during the school year and full-time during the summer break.The interns are required to write progress reports and technical reports on their work assignments.The interns also make a poster presentation at Oklahoma regional Universities Research Day hosted every year at the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond, Oklahoma.The internship program has not only provided work experience to the students but also helped the companies in developing new products.
