Re: Internship Opportunities for FIRSTers
I have been trying to work on something similar down here in GA. It however has not taken off. There are few companies down here that I know of that sponsor teams and would look highly at a FIRST candidate. Some of these are DVT Sensors, Scientific Atlanta, Lockeed Martin, Kimberly Clark. Since FIRST is GA is still relatively young no FIRST internships, as far as I know, have ever been established.
If this project took off I am pretty sure I could make a strong case for getting these local companies on board. They would most likely want to provide these opportunities to local students/teams. Please keep me informed of this projects progress. Good luck.
