“Through this experience, I was able to learn a lot more about what goes into creating a 3D printer, and provided more insight as to how a very high precision machine works. I’ve used many 3D printers before, but learning what goes on behind the scenes in a startup environment was a very eye-opening experience and will make me a better engineer!”
Valeria's Story
Valeria Gutierrez interned in Barcelona, Spain and developed a testing plan for various filament materials to be used with the printer. Along the way, she helped identify potential problems with the new model and helped brainstorm solutions.
"This is an experience I will remember for the rest of my life! I would not have been able to travel to work in a new country [and] I am forever grateful for the experience and what I learned from it."Valeria Gutierrez '24
