The COFES Internship
This is your time to shine!
You will be responsible for helping us put on the event. In exchange, you get the opportunity to rub elbows with current industry leaders, and hear and see what is going on during the event.
According to an intern from last year’s COFES:
“Volunteering as a conference intern provided me with the opportunity to connect with industry experts right away. Even before the conference had started, I had the opportunity to sit down with some of the early pioneers of engineering software. I worked alongside incredibly talented students from other universities to help setup the event, had great fun and made friendships along the way. The conversations and connections I made were of relevance not only to my academic research, but to my professional development as well."
The Process
Find the form at http://apply.cofes.com and fill it out by March 18, 2009
APPLICATIONS RECEIVED AFTER WEDNESDAY, MARCH 18 WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.
Because this is the form used for ALL applications to COFES, you must enter “FIRST INTERNSHIP” in the notes section so that we can identify you as an internship award candidate.
In addition to the contact information, you must respond to the first and last questions. Questions two and three are optional. For the last question, please provide us with the name, phone number, and email of a teacher or mentor who has worked closely with you and can speak to your abilities and character, and why they believe you should be a part of COFES 2009.
We will base our award on your response to the first question, but we may also consider your other responses, if provided.
On Monday, March 23 we will contact the references of the top two candidates and, once we have verified their status, we will notify the awardees.
