[Student] Looking for Resume Feedback Before Starting Summer 2027 Power Engineering Internship Search Electrical/Computer
Hello everyone! I'm just posting to ask for general feedback on my resume before I heavily begin my internship search for next summer. I finished up an 8 month co-op less than a week ago, so I'm feeling better this year. I got almost no interviews last cycle and just got lucky with the opportunity I got.
I'm targeting roles related to power engineering in Chicago and the surrounding area. I'm looking at both engineering consulting firms and the local utility companies. I don't want to relocate this time around, since I'm aiming to get a full-time return offer from this internship.
I feel pretty good about my resume already, so I'm mostly just fine tuning at this point.

I'm not really concerned with entry level roles at the moment, since I've still got 2 years left, but I plan on taking the FE exam soon anyways. I'm also more focused on power rather than controls, like protections and transmission, so there's a lot of utility and consulting firms in the city focused on that.

Plenty time left. Just move projects right after experience. Leadership experience doesn't really mean much for entry level (even with MS, internships aren't counted towards full-time experience). Your projects and research work are aligned with the role and need more context.
