Ziyan's Ziptern Journey: Innovating at Apple Inc. this Summer!

Ziyan, a PhD student majoring in Polymer Engineering, has landed an incredible opportunity to intern at Apple Inc., where she's involved in developing test plans that drive materials selection, design feasibility and performance of new parts. Talk about getting hands-on experience in cutting-edge technology!

Quality and Innovation in Apple's Product Development

As part of her internship, Ziyan is exploring the world of failure analysis, material characterization and material modeling. It's all about pushing the boundaries and ensuring that Apple's products meet the highest standards of quality and innovation. Her applied material research specifically focuses on coatings for emerging product design needs. We can only imagine the exciting breakthroughs Ziyan will uncover!

One of the things we absolutely love about Ziyan's journey is her dedication to documenting and presenting results to various teams at Apple Inc. From the material team to the product design team and even the reliability team, Ziyan is collaborating with experts from different fields, gaining invaluable insights and contributing to the collective success of the company. Who knows, maybe one day you'll be using a product that she helped create!

Interning at Apple Inc. is an incredible achievement, and it speaks volumes about Ziyan's expertise and potential. It's not every day that you get to work with some of the brightest minds in the industry, but Ziyan is doing just that. We can only imagine the invaluable connections she is making and the knowledge she is gaining during her time at Apple.

Ziyan's journey serves as a true inspiration for all aspiring engineers and innovators at The University of Akron and future Zips. It's a testament to the endless possibilities that lie ahead when you combine your passion with hard work and dedication.

Keep up the amazing work, Ziyan—you're representing Zips in the best way possible!
