Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) Co-op

January 23, 2020

Description

GTRI’s Cooperative Education (“co-op”) program offers you extensive opportunities to participate in diverse scientific and technological endeavors, use state-of-the-art equipment and rapidly improve your technical and leadership skills. The program allows you to alternate three semesters of full-time work at GTRI with semesters of full-time school.

The System Engineering Division (SEN) in the Electronic Systems Laboratory (ELSYS) seeks co-op students for the fall semester 2020 to develop embedded systems. The majority of the SEN Division’s projects are focused on developing embedded systems for military deployments, but some projects target commercial applications. The student will work under the guidance of GTRI researchers performing one or more of the following tasks that are integral to the development, testing, production, and deployment of embedded systems:

Digital and analog circuit designs
Electromechanical embedded device design
Embedded software development
Developing low-level device drivers for embedded systems
Testing and evaluating embedded systems
Creating technical data packages to document designs of embedded systems

HOURS PER WEEK
