Engineering Vice President
Resume:
To Solar Turbines, Inc:
Please consider this letter of inquiry as an expression of my interest in a
full time position at your company.
Currently, I am a Materials Science and Engineering major at the University
of Connecticut. I am finishing my seventh semester of study, and my focus
for coursework is in the area of metallurgy. I am very interested in the
diverse opportunities and real life applications that a degree in materials
science and engineering offers.
I have worked on research projects related to metallurgy. I performed
research on fire-resistant steel, experiencing how the material properties
change as different constituents are added to the steel. I have an
internship with the Institute of Materials Science at the University of
Connecticut which is sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security. I
am performing research on blast resistant materials, experiencing how
different materials and different configurations plastically deform under a
specific strain rate. These projects have given me a significant amount of
laboratory experience. Along with these projects, I am taking professional
electives related to metallurgy which will give me a concentration in
metallurgy.
I can offer a lot to your company as a full time employee. Please feel
free to contact me at 908-***-**** or by email ******.******@*****.***.
Sincerely,
Nicole Marino
