Select your first preference for an internship position.    ExxonMobil (Baton Rouge, LA) 

Briefly explain why you chose ExxonMobil (Baton Rouge, LA) as your most preferred int...    I have emphasized my degree in Nanotechnology and Petroleum Processes, so I chose the major Petroleum refining company, Exxon. Firstly, I chose Exxon because of my perception of the company. I hold Exxon to the highest esteem and respect based in the way they have pushed for the development of the industry and research worldwide. I hold myself close to those values and so I am attracted to Exxon. Moreover, the Baton Rouge location has such a variety of plants that produce a wide variety of products which would be ideal for me to experience because I am looking forward to develop Polyolefins and Polymers and Plastics plants, and refineries. Also, particularly the Anchorage terminal is of much interest for me since I think having experience around a setting like this will be beneficial for the work I plan to do in the future as a developer of petrochemical and refineries around the world. I look forward to exchanging value with Exxon and expanding the industry around the world. 

Select your second preference for an internship position.    Chevron Phillips Chemical (Pasadena, TX)

   I am interested in Chevron Phillips of Pasadena particularly because they are a Top Workplace. Also, based on what I could research, the experience I will gain with Chevron Phillips will make allow to later also develop olefins and polyolefins plants around the world. I plan to be of ultimate value for the development of petrochemical and related industries in countries in South America or like those in Saudi Arabia and Qatar that Chevron Phillips currently operates. I look forward to exchanging value with Chevron Phillips and expanding the industry around the world. 

Select your third preference for an internship position.    WR Grace (Columbia, MD) 

Briefly explain why you chose WR Grace (Columbia, MD) as your third choice for a...    The fact the WR Grace is a leading supplier of inorganic catalysts for petroleum refining is what makes this company a preferred choice. I am currently obtaining a nanotechnology minor, and I have figured that catalysts production and surface chemistry reactants production is the main way by which I will be able to combine my interest of developing facilities for downstream refining of petroleum around the world with nanotechnology. I look forward to exchanging value with WR Grace and expanding the industry. 

If you are not selected as an SCI Scholar, do you want to be considered for other paid summer int...    Yes 

Briefly describe how a summer industrial internship experience will help you achieve your educati...    Not accidentally, my career goals are colossally larger than attaining my own benefit and personal well-being. I have targeted the development of petrochemical and refining plants in countries around the world as a key factor in order to fully exploit the potential of the world economy and the technology available . I look forward to push for the development of petrochemical and refining plants in countries around the world. I anticipate introducing the highest level of industry to developing countries that have fallen behind or ones that desire the state of the art approaches to production, manufacturing, and overall business methods. All the money that is not being made given the suboptimal exploitation of the resources of many countries in the world means that the global economy is missing out the value these can provide. It takes preparation and an outstanding education in order to develop this level of industry that I can see we have in America, and I will be a factor in bringing this to the world if I get the right preparation and outstanding education that the internships offered in this program are offering.    It is crucial that I get hands-on experience in industry at all levels in order for me to then bring abroad the methods and models used in this companies. I require hands-on experience with downstream processes in order to develop the oil industry in Countries in South

America and the Middle East. I require hands on contact with ports and facilities that ship and receive crude and products from a to a myriad of places. I require access to the people that have the knowledge and connections that will allow me to expand the company's' business to broader frontiers.    The internships I have chosen are both diverse and lead developers of state of the art methods and technology for all chemical and refining industries in the world. Most of these companies already have expanded globally and are in current process of expansion which makes the goals of these companies compatible with mine. I have excelled in studies of Chemical Engineering and have emphasized my degree in Nanotechnology and Petroleum Processes with the intention to prepare myself to perform at the level required in industry, particularly one as big as relevant as the one I have chosen. I wish to join the venture and add the value of a brilliant, tireless, avid worker to these industries.
