Erick Castaneda-Munoz

Hey there! My name is Erick Castaneda-Munoz and I'm a Junior currently pursuing my Bachelor's of Science in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Texas at Dallas. I was previously a Biochemistry major in my 3rd year, however I recently switched to Mechanical Engineering in 2020. I was drawn to the major for the more career opportunities it grants upon graduation. I expect to graduate in May 2024. 

As of now, I am an Assistant Manager at a Sonic Drive-In that I have been working at since 2017. I am also an active student at UT Dallas & have held two positions there as an Undergraduate Researcher (Biochemistry-related) and one as a PLTL Leader/Tutor for the subjects Organic Chemistry 1 and 2. I am passionate about using what I have learned to also teach others along the way. These University-related positions have been concurrent with my position as an Assistant Manager throughout my college career. 

I am now searching for Mechanical Engineering-related internships to further my skillsets to become a full-time employee there at the company. In particular, I find the Fluid Thermal Science field fascinating, but I will be open to any position to broaden my opportunities.
