Midmark Corporation

“The projects I worked on dealt with Midmark's Next Generation Operatory dental chair lights and their dental rear assist units. They did final engineering prototype builds while I was there, and I was put in charge of setting up and priming the lines for these builds. I had to make sure all of the parts were there, and I also updated the work instructions and changed the order of the builds. I liked being able to make connections and work with many different people. I was able to have a couple of different projects throughout the semester, and I enjoyed that because of the opportunities it gave me. I liked also being in the New Product Development area because I was able to get involved in the builds they were doing, and I learned a lot from helping with those. I was also in a program that had a lot of co-ops, and there I was able to network and make new friends with other engineering students. ”

“Midmark's co-op and internship program is very fleshed out and they have co-ops and interns with the intent of building your skills and hiring after graduation. If you do take multiple rotations with them, they will put you in different departments so you can get an idea on what goes on in each department and I enjoy this because it gives you a chance to see what you like doing. I am in the test lab department this rotation and what I do is create test fixtures, conduct tests and collect data, and write reports on the tests I've conducted. Everyone at Midmark is very friendly and makes you feel welcome. Midmark has a lot of benefits as well, you can get your 401K set up, if you're not from around the area they have very cheap living spaces that very nice which are paid from your paycheck and have their own private gym that can be used.”
