Student Civil Engineer

June - August 2020 • Richmond, RI

What I liked

I liked being able to learn about whT hoes on at a jobsite and the relationship between the contractors and the state.

What I wish was different

I wish I could have done some more work. I was an inspector on the job and at times it could get boring just watching the contractors work.

Advice

This is a nice experience to see what really goes on on a jobsite you drive by everyday and a lot more work goes into these jobs than most of the general public thinks
