In my opinion, the greatest advice that I would give to incoming BME students is to network as much as possible. Networking is a key tool to get internships and co-op experience. Industry experience is important to succeeding in the field. It will be very smooth transition for an individual with a co-op background and industry experience. Furthermore, another advice I would give is not to be “picky” when accepting an opportunity or worry about the salary. Most students lose the opportunity because they are too specific on the opportunity that they have been presented and not realizing the importance of the role. One always should start somewhere to succeed. My recommendation is to network as much and be open to the opportunity presented.
