    Hello.
    I'm a Biomedical Engineering student in CIT and would like to secure some relevant work for the summer months. I have previous experience from last summer as a line opeeator at Abbott Vascular in Clonmel. I am a first class honours level 7 student in the final year of my course. I would be willing to move to wherever the work is, this would help me save funds for next year in college. Anybody with any suggestions?
    Regards
    Micheal

    OpenHydro in Louth are advertising for an Engineering Intern at the moment.

    I don't know if it's paid or not but no harm in giving them a bell.

    Google bio medical firms and apply. I would say your prospects of getting a job that will allow you to pay for college next year will be unlikely

    No, but it would be a good work experience anyway.

    Ok people. I am still looking for an intern engineer role for the summer months. Anymore suggestions. I am effectively graduating with a Biomedical Engineering level 7 degree in May.Maybe I need to cast a wider net and apply for any job?

    I'd apply for anything you see, but make sure you can demonstrate that you'll be a useful addition to the company. From your Abbott experience you might have a 'found problem, came up with solution, fixed problem' story that shows you know how to engineer. Doesn't have to be major, just something that demonstrates the right mindset.
