Anyone out there willing to help Amy? She's a cool, intelligent young person studying Design Engineering looking for a 6 month industry placement.

As part of the 3rd year of my Design Engineering degree I'm doing a 6 month industry placement. Does anyone have any suggestions of places I could apply? I'd like to spend my time doing physical computing things - with mechanical and creative components.

Please remember for #PiWars that, for the Nebula course (the coloured plates), the lighting conditions WILL affect the colours, regardless of the paint we use. There will be a calibration course available on the day so that you can colour-match.
