Abstract: This report presents a survey of the author's internship experience with Union Carbide Corporation's Texas City plant during the period July 1, 1980 through May 15, 1981. The ten and one-half month internship was spent as an engineering intern attached to the Maintenance Department, with access to virtually every staff and line component of the organization. The intent of this report is to demonstrate that this experience fulfills the requirements of the Doctor of Engineering internship. The author's internship activities can be divided into three major categories which correspond to the three principal internship objectives. The first objective required a study of the organization and how the individual parts function together to produce results. This study was conducted by taking part in various diverse orientations and small projects throughout the organization. The second objective called for development of interpersonal and management skills. This was accomplished by participating in all forms of daily business activities, talking with the observing managers, receiving formal management training and taking advantage of every opportunity to practice these important skills. The third objective required an identifiable contribution be made to one or more particular projects. The three principal projects to which the author contributed involved inventory control, industrial hygiene, and maintenance workforce utilization. The result of the internship experience was an appreciation for both the technical and non-technical aspects of operating a large chemical plant. The conclusion of the report is that the objectives were met and the internship requirement for the degree of Doctor of Engineering has been satisfied.

Abstract: This report describes the author's internship experience with URS Company - Dallas, Texas, from May 1980 to May 1981. The internship company is a consulting engineering firm engaged in providing professional services in the transportation, energy, pollution abatement, water resources, and water and wastewater treatment fields. The author worked as an electrical design engineer during the internship period. The author was also assigned the responsibilities and duties of a project engineer for one of the ongoing projects. The internship objectives were set to provide the author with an internship experience that fulfills the requirements of the Doctor of Engineering Program. These objectives were to become familiar with the organizational characteristics of the company; to make an identifiable contribution in the electrical engineering field; and to gain experience in the non-academic activities of the company, industry standards, ethical practices, and the interactions between the company and the industrial environments. During the internship period the author was involved in designing electrical power distribution, lighting, and control systems for the Dallas East Side Water Treatment Plant and some other projects. The author also developed a computer program to calculate feeder, conduit, and circuit breaker sizes for electrical power circuits. Furthermore, the author gained experience in project management, industry practices, and the internal and external activities of the internship company.

Ismail, Abdel-Wahab Tarek, 1956- (Texas A&M University, December 1982)[more][less]
Abstract: This report describes the author's internship assignment at Honeywell Inc. - Large Information Systems Division from January, 1982 through August, 1982. The purpose of the assignment was to fulfill the internship requirements of the Doctor of Engineering Program. During the internship, the author held the position of VLSI design engineer, where he worked on a predefined project. The project's objective was to evaluate how circuit designs based on an advanced CMOS process, can be applied to hardware products at LISD. The internship allowed the author to successfully apply the MOS circuit design training, which ws developed at Texas A&M, to an industrial project. In addition, involvement in different activities and exposure to the various problems not encountered in academia, made this internship an invaluable experience.
