My supervisor and co-workers were all wonderful. Everyone was so welcoming and encouraging which made for a great office climate. I loved the mix of work that I was able to accomplish during only 3 months there.
What I wish was different
I wish they had had more work lined up ahead of time. I found myself with a lot of intermittent free time where I was a bit bored and had to charge to overhead.
Advice
Networking and interpersonal skills are key players in the job market.

I wish I had more to do!

What I liked
I got a ton of hands on experience with real engineering projects. The company really focuses on providing real world experience rather than your typical intern grunt work.

Environmental Engineering Intern
June - August 2017 • Middletown, CT
What I liked
I loved the environment I worked in, my coworkers were great, and I was constantly working on something different every day. Also, I like the variability in projects I was working in.
What I wish was different
The first half of the internship (first four or five weeks) was very structured it seemed, but as it went on I felt as though they had less work for me.
Advice
Ask as many questions as you can! It's all so interesting, and your coworkers and boss will love to see that you take initiative.
