This internship gave me an opportunity to expand my knowledge of engineering and allowed me to gain hands on experience in the field. I really enjoyed being able to see what a career in electrical engineering would be like.
What I wish was different
Overall, I had a great experience with my internship and wouldn't change much. The environment and the people were super friendly and taught me a lot.
Advice
If you are planning on being an intern, make sure that you begin looking for a position early because there are a limited number of positions and they do fill up quick. I was able to secure my spot in December for an internship that started the next August.
