  • Prospective Engineers, Wilson Sporting Goods Co. Is Looking for A
    Prospective Engineers, Wilson Sporting Goods Co. is looking for a co-op for the Racquet Sports Division at our Innovation Center in Schiller Park, IL. Ideally, the selected candidate would alternate semesters of work and school successfully completing at least three work sessions before finishing their degree. The commitment can be mutually negotiated, but would begin with a work term starting in the summer or fall. We find the co-op program is more valuable than just a summer internship because the student is able to get more out of their working experience. Instead of just getting up to speed by the end of the term, the co-op has more time to apply techniques learned. Also, the co-op can discover his or her own interests in the engineering field and tailor their class schedules to match those interests when returning to class. The student will work side by side with engineers on product development, laboratory testing, blue sky innovation, and new material research at our 37,000 sq ft Innovation Center. Projects will range from the daily duties of tennis ball and string testing to larger scale studies that have included advanced composite lay-up analysis, development of dynamic test equipment, and pro player equipment support. Of course, there are also opportunities for equipment play-testing as well. If this sounds like an opportunity you would be interested in, and you are someone who enjoys working with your hands and has an interest in sports, please send me your resume. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.
