Computational Fluid Dynamics Internship Jobs in Indiana

Job Description:

The Advanced Visualization Engineering Internship provides hands-on experience supporting Intermountain Health's IMPACT Center, a specialized engineering team focused on patient-specific care, advanced visualization, medical device development, digital healthcare innovation, and additive manufacturing technologies. Interns contribute directly to clinical and operational initiatives involving 3D printing, biomedical engineering, digital workflow transformation, medical imaging, patient-specific modeling, and emerging healthcare technologies.
This position is designed to provide meaningful real-world experience while supporting production, operational, research, and implementation activities across multiple clinical specialties. Preference will be given to Master's and PhD students pursuing Biomedical Engineering, Biomechanical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computational Engineering, or closely related engineering disciplines with research or practical experience in computational modeling, fluid mechanics, cardiovascular modeling, medical devices, additive manufacturing, advanced visualization, or patient-specific healthcare technologies.

This position is on-site and is not eligible for hybrid or remote work.

Schedule: The position offers some flexibility up to 40 hours per week, with an expected commitment of 30-40 hours during standard business hours (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM). Occasional support outside standard hours, including holidays or weekends, may be required to support operational needs, production deadlines, or time-sensitive clinical requests.

*Preferred skills include:

• 3D Printing, additive manufacturing, and CAD applied to anatomical simulation and modeling for patient specialized applications
• In a graduate engineering program pursuing Biomedical, Biomechanical, Mechanical, or Computational Engineering
• Medical Device Design and Prototyping
• Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Fluid Mechanics research or practical experience

The Advanced Visualization Engineering Intern supports the IMPACT Center's clinical, operational, and innovation activities through participation in biomedical engineering, patient-specific care, advanced visualization, additive manufacturing, and digital healthcare initiatives. Interns work closely with engineers, clinicians, and operational stakeholders to support production workflows, research activities, quality processes, and implementation of new technologies.

Responsibilities may include support of advanced visualization and patient specific surgical planning, medical device development, digital impressions, 3D printing, post-processing, equipment maintenance, quality documentation, workflow optimization, and technology validation activities. Interns may also participate in research, development, and evaluation of emerging technologies, including computational modeling, biomechanics, fluid dynamics, advanced visualization, and patient-specific engineering applications.

Strong preference for candidates with research or practical experience in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), fluid mechanics, cardiovascular modeling, biomedical analysis, additive manufacturing, engineering simulation, medical device development, or advanced design methodologies are encouraged to apply.
