The Sonoco Institute at Clemson is a unique education, research, and industry collaboration focused on advanced solutions and resources for tomorrow’s printing and packaging value chain. The Advanced Print Lab is used for both student and industry research, testing, and training. Print lab assistants will work closely with industry partners on confidential, cutting edge research projects that will grant them relevant hands-on experience in their future career fields. More experienced students will have the opportunity to teach other students their technical knowledge and skills. During industry research and training initiatives, students will also have networking opportunities that can lead to internship or job offers. We encourage press assistants to return for future semesters to continue the develop their knowledge and understanding, if schedules allow. Duties include the following: aid with student and industry research initiatives, help teach hands-on sessions during industry training events, lab maintenance and organization, and more.
