I want to be selective in choosing the company that I begin my career with. I want to ensure that the company that I choose has a program related that aids in helping their employees get advanced degrees. During my first year in my career I want to get into a master’s degree program either focusing on engineering or cyber security. I know there is a market for black women in both of those aspects of computer science so I want to tailor myself so that I am a candidate that is highly sought after. This summer I participated in my second internship with The Boeing Company in Seattle, WA. I worked under a group that focused on information technology infrastructure. Closer to the end of the internship I had the opportunity to apply to some of the entry-level rotational programs that Boeing has to offer. The first one that I applied and interviewed for was the Information Technology Career Foundation Program that is a 3-year rotation in 4 types of computer science related sectors of Boeing. I participated in a phone interview and I am still waiting to hear back from this program.

...Executive Summary The following report will determine the strategic position of Rolls-Royce and the environmental impact of a new technology upon that strategic position. The report will analyse and evaluate the role and impact of short to medium range single aisle narrow body aircraft on the strategic position of Rolls-Royce. The report will focus on the civil aerospace business of Rolls-Royce and will use Rolls-Royce Inchinnan as a base model. The Boeing 737 series and Airbus A320 are the most popular aircraft ever produced with a 737 landing in the world every five seconds. The 737 in particular will reach the end of its service life within the next ten years. Southwest airlines are requesting an overdue replacement with most airframes living thirty years, the original 737 was released in 1967. The effect of the next generation 737, released in 1998, retiring will leave a considerable gap to be filled. Rolls-Royce does not power the Boeing 737which is monopolised by Pratt and Whitney and General Electric. Should Rolls-Royce attain a share of this market it will become the largest contract ever undertaken by Rolls-Royce. The new aircraft is currently under development and is expected to form the latest of aerospace technology such as composite structures, geared turbofans or open rotor designs. All of the large aerospace manufacturers are currently vying for involvement in the programme for should the new edition emanate the previous, the returns will be substantial...
