I liked that I was able to gain hands on experience working with a software called HEC-RAS, while also working under a mentor who works and has experience in a field of my interest. I also liked that I was able to create my schedule and work around my summer classes.
What I wish was different
I don't wish that any of it had been different.
Advice
Have an open mind and take advantage of opportunities that come your way. You don't know what that opportunity may do for you, and who you may meet while you are doing it. Give it 100% effort.
