I am a senior in high school and have Caltech on my list as a potential school to apply to. Currently, I intend to major in mechanical engineering and probably a minor in aerospace engineering.
I know that Caltech has plenty of research opportunities with college professors and such. However, I am interested in gaining industry experience during college, so my question is: how available are (paid and unpaid) internships and co-ops with companies (specifically engineering/aerospace related)? I know that JPL is a big thing at Caltech, but besides that, I can’t seem to find as much information on internships and co-ops, which makes me believe it’s not very big at the school?
