Over this past Spring Break I took a trip to the happiest place on earth, Disney World in Orlando, FL! It was my first time EVER going there and it was very overwhelming at first. However, one reason I was excited about going to Disney was because of all the influence that Penn State engineers have had there. If you have ever been to Disney I am sure that you have used the "fast past system." This system made my life so much easier since I didn't have to wait in any long lines for the roller coasters! What makes the fast pass even greater is that Penn State Industrial Engineers helped develop that process. Also, Penn State IE CO-OP's helped develop the "Magical Express Transportation" which transports your luggage from the airport to your hotel! It is amazing how much Penn State Engineering students have influenced Disney World. There are also numerous students from both mechanical and industrial engineering that have participated in both the College-program and professional program at Disney, so you are bound to run into at least one of them there. After all, it is where dreams come true.
