About Caleb Combs
I am a hardworking and adaptable mechanical engineering graduate student at Rice University, searching for internship opportunities. As an undergrad at Prairie View A&M University, I was a Regents’ Student Merit Scholar, was awarded the 2023 Most Outstanding Mechanical Engineering Senior awardee, and maintained a 4.0 cumulative grade point average. I have participated in multiple STEM related internships and research experiences throughout my undergraduate career. In the summer of 2019, I was a material science research intern at University of Houston, supported by the National Science Foundation. The following year, I was a combustion chamber design intern for a NASA-funded project at Prairie View A&M University. I also worked on computer vision/machine learning Python program development, as a participant in the Morgan State University Smart and Connected Cities REU/RET. I worked for the Prairie View A&M University Department of Mechanical Engineering as a student hourly assistant, conducting research in end effector design and hand-eye coordination for a puzzle-solving robotic arm. I most recently worked for Apple as an iPhone Product Design intern, during the summer of 2023. I aim to utilize my engineering knowledge and skills to broadly benefit society through technological advancements, particularly in the fields of consumer electronics and robotics.
