Aniesha's Story

Aniesha Dyce, mechE major, applied what she learned in her classes to help produce a complete generator prototype that was ready to be tested.

"The purpose [of the internship] was to develop a Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamic Generator. I CADed different designs in Solidworks while collaborating with my director. Once a design was finalized I 3D printed it. By the end of my internship I produced a complete generator prototype that was ready to be tested.

I used the skills I learned in 2.00A and the knowledge learned in 8.02. In 2.00A I learned how to do 3D designs and how to use a 3D printer. In 8.02 I learned the principles of electromagnetic induction, which was how the generator functioned.

They provided a supportive community that was very welcoming.

This experience made me more confident in my decision to become a mechanical engineer. It is a great opportunity to learn about another culture and enhance your language skills. There is so much to see around the world and when given the chance you should explore.
