Student Activity
Kelly Mettler, a Trojan Alumni who completed the Progressive Degree Program last year, is leading an info session about General Electric. She currently is participating in the Quality/Regulatory Leadership Program at GE. This will be a great opportunity to talk with a recent Trojan alumni and learn about GE in general. If you are interested, please apply for the Quality/ Regulatory position on ConnectSC before the meeting! She wanted to pass the following information along:
The QRLP program involves three rotational assignments across GE Healthcare in quality assurance and regulatory affairs. Participants learn technical problem-solving skills, which are developed via quality assurance and regulatory affairs coursework. The program also includes hands-on coaching and mentoring, a variety of assignments, teamwork, ongoing reviews and defined deliverables. The program provides valuable experience in a variety of quality specialties, such as Regulatory Affairs, Production and Process Controls, Complaint Handling, Corrective and Preventative Action, Pre- and Post-Market Product Safety Surveillance, Design Controls, Supplier Quality, Quality Assurance, and Quality Management System Compliance. The full-time position is for students who will be graduating with a M.S., but there is also an internship position for undergraduates currently enrolled in a Masterâs program (perfect for seniors doing PDP!). Note that the content will mostly relate to BME and ISE majors, although other majors may apply. There will be representatives on-campus for the Viterbi Industry Networking Event (VINE) and the Viterbi Career Fair â if you have questions, be sure to find us!
For more information, visit: http://www.ge.com/careers/students/qrlp/index.html
In order to be considered for QRLP, you will have to register through ConnectSC via On-Campus Recruiting. Additionally, you need to apply online through GE Careers prior to being interviewed. Hereâs how you can apply:
1) You can apply online at: http://www.gecareers.com/campusinterview
2) Select the "Business-Specific Internship, Co-op, & Full-Time Positionsâ radio button
3) Select âGE Healthcareâ from the drop-down list and click âSubmit.â
Click âApplyâ next to âQuality - Regulatory Leadership Program - QRLPâ and follow the instructions to upload resume and cover letter.
Additionally, Dr. Enciso and Dennis Tran from the BME/DENT 412 class will be coming in to speak about a fun course that integrates biomedical engineering with dentistry, the "Fundamentals of Craniofacial and Dental Technology!"Location: Ronald Tutor Campus Center (TCC) - 302
