Abstract
This report highlights the author's major activities and
accomplishments during his 15 months internship at the International Business Machines (IBM)
Corporation in Austin, Texas. The internship objectives were set so as to provide him with an
experience commensurate with the requirements of the Doctor of Engineering Program at Texas
A&M University. During his internship, the author was involved with a variety of technical
and non-technical projects. His assignments included: 1) The design of an automation strategy
for one manufacturing center. 2) The overall supervision and coordination of a major
automation project. 3) The development of a project scheduling/tracking system. 4)
Co-authoring an "Equipment Specifications Guidelines" form. 5) Other assignments as needed.
The nature and scope of the above assignments provided the author with a broadly based
experience in the Manufacturing Engineering field. Additionally, the leadership role he played
in some of the assignments afforded him with first hand exposure to many aspects of management
and leadership skills. All in all, the author believes that this internship proved to be an
enriching experience and a valuable addition to his overall
education.
