Here are some comments from previous Trimble university intern program participants:

"I was 'thrown' directly into my group and treated like any other member of the team. I was given projects to work on and I never had anyone looking over my shoulder. My mentor made himself readily available for any question I had. ... I returned to school feeling like I had been an asset to Trimble."

David (M.S.E. Geodesy), Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN

"Trimble is a great company. They challenge you with these seemingly impossible projects that you're definitely capable of completing… I learned more from one week at Trimble, than from sitting through a whole term of lectures!"

Joyce (B.S. Electrical Engineering), MIT, Cambridge, Massachusetts.

"The atmosphere at Trimble made it much easier to work without feeling stress. This was the best internship experience I've ever had."

Kenneth (B.S. Electrical Engineering), Cornell University, Ithaca, NY

"The job was challenging and there were always people there to help me if I got snagged on something."

Matt (M.S. Electrical Engineering), Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, CA
