We are one of the world's largest chocolate manufacturing facilities and several of Hershey's famous brands are manufactured in our plant. In this co-op position, the student will be working in an industrial environment and be expected to assume a very "hands-on" role. The co-op will be given challenging, productive assignments like those of an entry-level, full-time engineer, allowing him/her to experience a sense of accomplishment and contribution. Specific duties will mainly involve working with milk chocolate processing equipment and will require the student to work directly with Production, Maintenance, Trades, Contractors, Equipment Vendors, Engineering, Quality Assurance, and other support team members depending on the assignment. The successful candidate will demonstrate integrity, strong communication and people skills, analytical mindset, project leadership, and technical acumen. Although Process Engineering will be the focus, the student will also interact frequently with Mechanical, Industrial, Electrical, and Controls engineers. This allows the co-op to understand what role each engineering discipline plays in a manufacturing plant. Many of the concepts that the co-op learns in this position can be applied to other industries. Responsibilities: The student will work under the direct supervision and guidance of an experienced engineer and perform the same tasks. Responsibilities will increase as appropriate as the co-op term progresses. Typical assignments are:
Required Skills/Experience:
Work Schedule: A minimum of two co-op terms are required. The terms can be rotational assignments, or two terms can be consecutive.

Preliminary recruiting for Spring and Summer terms 2024 is also underway.
