Intern Testimonials
"The work at Altera is really interesting because it is often at the cutting-edge of technology." Jason, Co-op engineer 2006
"Altera is an industry leader not only in its products, but in its people. That, along with the highly interesting work and dynamic work environment, makes Altera undoubtedly one of the best places to work and succeed." Ricky, Co-op engineer 2006
"I really enjoy Altera's academically rich atmosphere. We have regular technical seminars which could be interesting talks about internal projects or a presentation from a university professor on research advancements. These seminars are great for keeping Altera's innovative edge." Winnie, Co-op engineer 2006
"The greatest thing about working at Altera is the amount of activities that go on other than work. At least once a week there are optional technical seminars where you can learn about what someone else is working on. The seminar topics range from a summary of papers from a conference to a presentation from a visiting professor about his research. I find these seminars very helpful in broadening my knowledge about what goes on elsewhere in this field." Gary, Co-op engineer 2006
