Internships, arranged through the Engineering Research Center for Compact
and Efficient Fluid Power (CCEFP), provide a great way to gain real world,
on-the-job experience in engineering. CCEFP internships are offered by
companies in the fluid power industry that support the Center as industrial
members.
By working with these leaders in hydraulic and pneumatic technology, you
will be able to develop your engineering skills and apply what you are
learning in the classroom to the wide range of current and emerging fluid
power applications. They include:
MOBILE APPLICATIONS Fluid power is used to transport, excavate and lift
materials as well as control and power mobile equipment. End use markets
relying on fluid power include construction, agriculture, marine and the
military.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS Fluid power is used to provide power
transmission and motion control for the machines of industry with
applications that include metalworking equipment, controllers, automated
manipulators, material handling and assembly equipment
AEROSPACE Fluid power is used for both commercial and military aircraft, spacecraft and related support equipment with applications that include landing gear,
brakes, flight controls, motor controls and cargo loading equipment.
