Product Design Undergrad Internships at Apple

Job description

Provide support to design, engineering, prototyping and validation activities for all hardware product lines Help to create the next generation of the world's finest hardware devices Conceive, design, and bring into production products that will re-define the user experience Work closely with many different multi-functional teams, including Industrial Design, Packaging, Safety, Hardware Engineering, EMC, Reliability and Marketing Currently pursuing a BS in mechanical engineering, materials science, or a related field of study. At the end of the internship, you must return to school to continue your education or the internship must be the last requirement for you to graduate. It’s helpful if you meet one or more of the following qualifications, but it isn’t a requirement: Product design experience (coursework or projects) Exposure to working with component modules (LCD assemblies, batteries, camera modules, etc.) and their interconnect (FPC design and ACF bonding) Knowledge of materials science fundamentals for plastic, adhesive, metal, glass, ceramic, composite, and coating materials Ability to use statistical tools and techniques Knowledge of finite element analysis theory and general mechanical engineering analysis 3-D CAD skills Exposure to Design for Manufacturability (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), statistical tolerance analysis techniques, functional dimensioning, and geometric tolerancing Interest in Handheld, portable and/or hardware development Knowledge of the integration of wireless antenna (GSM, GPS, Wifi) into mechanical enclosures Knowledge of the design of audio subsystems (microphone, speaker, receiver) Exposure in Unigraphics or Pro-engineer Ability to work in a team-based environment Ability to be proactive and take initiative Strong analytical and problem solving skills Flexibility and adaptability Ability to work on multiple requests/tests at the same time Excellent written and verbal communication skills
