Grateful to have completed my internship at GE Aerospace. This experience has been more than just an internship-it was a journey of learning, challenges, and growth. From gaining practical knowledge to understanding real-world engineering applications, every moment added value. A big thank you to everyone who supported and guided me throughout this journey. Excited for what lies ahead!

I highly appreciated the real-world engineering approach. The trade-off analysis between SAF, Hydrogen, and Jet-A, followed by writing a technical memo to the Lead Engineer, provided an excellent look into daily engineering decision-making. Structuring a presentation on bypass and compression ratios was also a very practical exercise.

I liked that the simulation provided a practical introduction to aircraft engine conceptual design and allowed me to apply engineering concepts such as bypass ratio, compression ratio, engine sizing, efficiency, emissions, and design tradeoffs. The research-based tasks helped me understand how different propulsion parameters influence overall engine and aircraft performance.
