Eva Brandt

I am currently a sophomore at Purdue University where I will earn a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering in May of 2026. My education at Purdue has given me a wide variety of technical competencies. Several classes have allowed me to become well versed in MATLAB, Python, C, and NX.

My engineering courses have exposed me to projects in both robotics and model analysis while working in a team using the engineering design process. I am very interested in a Student Placement summer 2024 position to gain new technical skills and be challenged in my everyday work. I look forward to the opportunity to be able to share additional information on my background and qualifications.
