Design and Engineering Interns join KES

Anna Christensen is a CAD major at Baton Rouge Community College.  Ana Escobar is a Honduran national studying Chemical Engineering at Louisiana State University.  KES continues to provide mentorship and real-world experience to students in STEM.

Design By Analysis for Glassy Polymers

KES is leading the development of a new “design by analysis” method for glassy polymers. The initial focus is for windows in pressure vessels for human occupancy (PVHOs) including submersibles, saturation diving, and medical hyperbaric treatment systems. However, a system that can provide a robust design for a life-critical structure can be readily adapted to other applications.

New medical system for enhanced oxygen therapy

KES has worked with Microbaric Oxygen Systems from their early days.  We helped them develop their patents as well as provided expertise at different stages of their system's development.   We are excited their continued progress in assisting those with autism with...

 

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.
