Week 10

            With the research assessments over with, the class work for ISM has decreased. However, with this decrease, I was able to have my fourth interview with Curtis Bagby. Mr. Bagby is the VP of sale of North America at Emerson, and although his is not an engineer, he still works for an engineering company. With this, he was able to show me a different side of engineering that I have never seen before. He also provided insight to what happens after the engineers make a new product. Lastly Mr. Bagby was able to provide many names of people I could potentially contacts for my next interview. Thus, with this information, the interview proved to be very informative.
            As my interviews with professionals come near to the end, I have also decided to contact Mr. Nguyen at Emerson, a contact that was given to me my Mr. Bagby. I hope he is able to have an interview with me before Thanksgiving break hits.

            Lastly, this week I have planned my display board and written invitations for the research showcase in December. Now I just need to deliver the invitations to the eleven people on my invite list. This thus proves this week to be a rather productive one.
