KES is OK so far. How are you doing with the flooding?
Our offices in Baton Rouge and Franklin are untouched so far. We have been operating from home as well as at work. So far only one of our team has had to evacuate. We are still waiting to see what the damage there is.
How are you? If we can help, please contact us. Whether it’s doing a fitness for service to see if equipment can be salvaged, or overflow work because your staff is not available, or some other flood-related assistance, please contact us. If it’s incidental work, we’ll try to do it for free. If it’s more, we’ll help out the best we can.
We are all in this together.

Bart Kemper’s testimony contributes to winning case
Expert witness work is not about winning, but providing ethical opinions. Sometimes the best opinion is the one that disagreed with their initial hypothesis and allows a lawyer to change their approach.

College Internships
There has been an increasing trend in US universities to not seek engineering professors with work experience as a Professional Engineer. This is a key gap in engineering education, as there are hard lessons that are only learned when one is the “professional in charge.” Research and education alone does not put the professional in the position as the “responsible in charge” for decisions risking lives or significant money. KES supports the profession by offering one-semester unpaid internships.
The student will have a chance to be exposed to design work, failure analysis, real-life numerical modeling, and the business decisions that go along with the engineering work. Reading assignments will be given and discussed along with past project work. Work will be assigned based on the student’s skills and education to that point. KES will give strong consideration to veterans, women, and minorities, but any student of any discipline can apply.
Paid internships are offered based on demonstrated competencies and company needs. Solidworks is the most frequently used tool by KES. It is highly desired an intern has skills with this software. If they do not but still wish to intern, KES will provide one semester unpaid internship in order for the student to become sufficiently proficient in Solidworks. Regardless of paid or unpaid status, the hours will be flexible and it is understood other commitments may take priority. Letters of recommendation will reflect the progress the student demonstrated and the work ethic presented.
