<p>Awesome, you are correct in assuming he did not have any engineering research projects or related jobs in between sophomore and junior year. He does have a job lined up for this summer, non engineering related, but it’s not what he wants. The job is here at home, Harrisburg area, while not what he really wants, it is a job. He wants to stay in Pittsburgh because most of his friends will be staying over the summer. I pray that he is correct, and once he has the degree, something will open up, but it may be a long road ahead. thanks for your advice, I will have to ask him how many of his engineering friends actually had internships last summer, I only know of one, a ChemE major.</p>
