BEST OF 2013 – PROCESSES & INNOVATION Intern Programs Can Spark Innovation One way to attract top talent and differentiate your business at the same time is to add one of the students coming out of the Virginia Tech packaging program that is developing in conjunction with Center for Packaging and Unit Load Design (CPULD). The CPULD places students in summer internships around the coun- try. These young professionals bring a wide variety of skills, having worked along- side sharp packaging and wood science minds. From technical experts to pack- aging designers to sales staff, they can help almost any pallet company that wants to do more than just compete on price. If you want to snatch up one of these bright young minds for the summer, you should consider contacting the CPULD quickly before another company does. You can hire an intern for the summer at a minimal cost and see just how much it could help your operation. Interns can tackle specific projects, such as plant optimization and lean business strategies, improving product design and pack- aging for customers, revamping sales literature and technical communications to customers, etc. To find out more information about available students and skill sets, contact Laszlo Horvath, the CPULD director at [email protected]. Or list an available job or internship with the Department of Sustainable Biomaterials by contacting Angela Riegel at [email protected] or calling 540-231-7107.
