Keith Brooks of Antioch prepares for real-world experience Yvette Hayward • Reader Submitted • May 27, 2008 As of May 23, the office had 76 College of Engineering students scheduled to head out for their first work assignment this summer. Among them is Keith Brooks of Antioch. Brian Crawford, corporate recruiter for DENSO Manufacturing Tennessee, Inc., Maryville, spoke on company expectations and how to make a positive impression. DENSO works with automakers throughout their vehicle development process and has been placing UT College of Engineering students in co-op and internship positions for several years. In addition, experienced co-op students shared lessons they learned in the field, giving the "first timers" a peer perspective and affording them an opportunity to ask questions of those with first-hand experience in the program.
