"This past summer I was fortunate to be one of six interns hired by Advanced Acoustic Concepts, a distributed high tech engineering firm with offices in ten states. Even better, I was able to stay in Montana since the company hosted their intern program at an office at the Tech Ranch in Bozeman." ~ Stuart Howard, Montana State University
Paid Internships and Six Month Co-ops Offered
AAC offers paid internships for exceptional engineering and science students. Many interns return for several summers, building their resumes with diverse project experiences. AAC also offers a six month co-op experience for qualified candidates.
"I valued my AAC internship because I got to work on substantive Navy projects. That real world experience was valuable because I was able to contribute in an authentic working situation - an experience which cannot be replicated in a classroom." ~ Thaddeus Magyar, California University of Pennsylvania (pursuing a Master's in Business from Duquesne University with the help of AAC's tuition reimbursement program)
Extending Classroom Knowledge
AAC's business model is to work closely with local institutions of higher education to develop the skilled professional workforce needed by a national distributive engineering company serving the defense industry. AAC works closely with the science and engineering departments of local universities, bringing industry's perspective to curriculum development.
"After serving in the U.S. Navy, I returned to school to earn an associate's degree in computer networking. My six month internship with AAC was a critical part of my education at Del Mar College because it allowed me access to the latest technology and the opportunity to work with the company's engineers nationwide." ~ David White, Del Mar College, Corpus Christi, Texas
