Mining Engineering story
With only a few weeks left until summer, Katie Hutton began to feel anxious. As a mining engineering and German double major, she knew securing an internship would help set her apart when looking for jobs after graduation. Typically, mining engineering students find internships in the fall semester, but because Hutton enrolled in the program during the spring semester, she was scrambling to find an internship.
But then a chance conversation with her faculty adviser, Jeffrey Kohler, the George H. Jr. and Anne B. Deike Endowed Chair in Mining Engineering, opened a door for Hutton.
