In the cutthroat world of civil and structural engineering, the term 'internship' often gets thrown around as a magic solution for migrant and graduate engineers struggling to break into the 👩🏽💻🙇🏽 Australian job market. But here's the harsh reality: not all internships are created equal. The difference between a generic internship and a well-structured, engineer-developed program can be the line between career success and continued joblessness.

This is definitely not my wheelhouse, but I know I have some connections on here that knew my dad out in Oak Ridge and were/are in construction management. Does anyone have connections or insight for a friend of mine who is in school for civil engineering that will be looking for an internship this summer? #internship #constructionmanagement #civilengineering #structuralengineering

Hey there, fellow Civil Engineering interns! This internship can be tough sometimes. You might be surrounded by experienced engineers, tackling complex projects, and feeling a little overwhelmed. But that's exactly why internships are so valuable – they're a chance to learn and grow! Here's the thing: every engineer, even the most brilliant ones we admire today, started as interns. They asked questions, made some mistakes, and eventually learned from them. So don't get discouraged if things don't click right away. Embrace the challenges – they're opportunities to build your skills and gain real-world experience. Here are few tips to keep you on track: 1️⃣Focus on the learning: This internship is about soaking up knowledge. Don't be afraid to ask questions, no matter how basic they may seem. From your supervisors even to artisans, ask! The more you learn now, the stronger your foundation will be. 2️⃣Maintain a positive attitude: A can-do spirit is contagious! It shows your superiors you're eager to learn and contribute. Also, a positive outlook makes the whole experience more enjoyable. 3️⃣Don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone: Internships are a great time to try new things. Volunteer for different tasks, even if they seem unfamiliar. You might discover hidden talents or passions! 4️⃣Remember, every contribution matters: Even the seemingly small tasks you're doing are important parts of the bigger picture. You're playing a role in bringing these civil engineering projects to life! This internship is a stepping stone to your future as a civil engineer. Embrace the challenges, stay positive, and keep learning. You've got this! Have a knowledge-filled week! #civilengineeringstudent #futureofconstruction #studentintern #continuouslearning #buildingthefuture #sustainabledevelopment #societalimpact #civilengineeringpractice

Civil engineering requires many different technologies so a city can function properly. The most important technology is undoubtedly the computer with its many computer programs. Using data collected from the field, an engineer can decipher whether a project is up to code and won't break anything. Another important technology is GPS stakes. This highly accurate GPS sends the exact position of pipes, lines, or anything underground. Without this technology, there would be many more pipes bursting throughout the city as no one would know their exact position.

We are continuing our Careers in Construction Month Series with a highlight of what its like to be a Project Engineer! Check out what Zachary had to say about his construction journey: 1. How did you get into the construction industry? I got into the construction industry at a young age. My parents were custom house builders so I was always around the building process and helping out where I could. It wasn’t until college that I knew I want to go into the transportation industry. Those classes at ASU were very interesting to me and eventually I got an internship with Pulice Construction, Inc. 2. What is something that you enjoy about the industry or about your position? My favorite thing about what we do is that everyday is different. There isn’t a single day that goes by that is identical. We are always trying to find solutions to problems or finding different ways to do activities more efficiently. 3. What advice would you give to someone interested in a career in construction? My advise to someone interested in the construction industry would be to spend a day shadowing someone to be able to see a normal life of a construction professional. #GreatPeopleBuildGreatThings #CareersInConstruction #ProjectEngineer #CivilEngineering #ConstructionInternships #Construction
