Subsequent to my research into Suncor Energy, I remain interested in working there because my research shows that they embrace diversity and have great opportunities for everyone from new graduates all the way to seasoned professionals. They also have a dynamic mix of newcomers

From my previous work and volunteering positions, I have gained many technical and soft skills. During my time as a summer research assistant at the Green Roof Innovation Testing Laboratory, I improved my

Introduction The purpose of this final report is to summarize my experiences as an intern at Anslow Bryant Construction, Ltd. I will discuss the internship orientation and preparation, activities and experiences, and the application of technology. I will continue on to the energy and environmental awareness, and sustainable construction, and communication shill enhancement. I will conclude this report with legal and ethical issue awareness, lessons learned, and the overall assessment and recommendations of the internship.

I currently work at Hydro One Networks Inc., as a Protection and Control Engineering Intern. I originally did a 4 months’ coop work term at Hydro One after completing my second year of university. After my third year, I went back again for a 16 months’ internship which will end on September 1, 2017. While at Hydro One, I assisted with special assignments and projects which includes: commissioning and testing protection relays before they go in service, metering new protection relays and terminal blocks for device functionality, creating device types templates for new protection and control equipment, analyzing transformer gas trips caused by natural occurring events, investigating issues with voltage reduction test carried out by the IESO (Independent

I am honored to be nominated by teachers and fellow peers to become a member of Connect Crew. Ultimately my interest in Connect Crew can be connected to my love in assisting others, however my fascination with Connect crew can be traced way back to my first year. Throughout my freshman year, and especially on my first day at HSHMC I was astonished by the chemistry of the schools community. My first day on campus I was immediately approached and greeted by upperclassmen. I can distinctly remember a very welcoming atmosphere, something I would have never expected going to your typical high school. With this experience, and the help of connect crew I would like to build on the school’s community, and welcome the lowerclassmen into a safe HSHMC

Environmental Studies is the academic field, which systematically studies human interaction with the environment in which we live in. It is a broad field of study that includes the natural environment, built environment, and the sets of relationships between them. Environmental studies takes into account many different factors that help provide an enjoyable, fruitful way of life, such as national policies, politics, laws, economics, sociology and other social aspects, planning, pollution control, natural resources, and the interactions of human beings and nature.

"For decades, industries in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) departments have been dominated by males, assuming that women aren’t capable of being successful in those fields. In addition to fuel extraction, manufacturing, refining, and distribution, the energy sector needs to put a focus on closing the gender gap. As a major business, it is necessary for the energy industry to recruit diverse perspectives from both males and females in order to excel our planet to one that is knowledgeable about our economy in relation to energy.

I will be an amazing opportunity to work with researchers from The Penn Center for Energy Innovation; it will allow me to create new, effective, and environmentally friendly materials and systems to produce and store energy. I also like UPenn’s approach to cooperation, when professionals from different fields of study work together to resolve energy challenges. The elves are enamored of nature, they cherish and worship it. It upsetting to see clouds of black exhaust fumes that constantly rise above the

This work term report results from a collaboration of individuals. Jenco Ltd. employees Steve Broderick, Cassandra Fitzgerald, and Craig Drover have all provided valuable contributions to this informative work and I sincerely thank them for their generosity, patience, suggestions, and encouragement. I’m grateful that they took their time to assist

If I’m fortunate enough for the diligent work invested in my education to pay off, I strive to enter the career of chemical engineering. An all-time goal would be to work for a company such as Tesla; they are the epitome of future innovation and it would be an honor to be able to work for them. Tesla’s advancements in battery technology and their efforts to reduce fossil fuel dependency are the areas I’m fascinated with. Additionally, the emphasis for my major is environmental engineering because it is vital to protect the environment and I encourage it. The volunteering contributions I’ve provided reflect this sentiment; notably, I volunteer with Keep Truckee Meadows Beautiful and have worked with my high school’s Eco-Warriors club. I’ve continuously

Although, it is invisible but it is something real and substantial. As a power engineer, I’ll be helping to guarantee electricity supply to keep businesses and households going – allowing everyone to do what they have to do and importantly, do what they want to do. Power Engineers help to shape the future. Clean energy sources, smart grid, energy efficiency and electric vehicles are some of the promising areas that depend on new technology designed by power and energy engineers. Pursuing my interest, I have also worked in Goldwind Co. Ltd, where I designed algorithms for the fault detection in wind turbines, which was verified by the company and is installed in a big wind farm near

The development of every nation hinges on the effectiveness of their transportation systems. Movement of goods, services and people to and from work is made possible by transportation systems. The importance of effective transportation systems cannot be over-emphasized. A lot of countries are facing Transportation problems and my country Ghana

I discovered I had a passion for pursuing a career in the clean energy industry and I wanted to delve deeper into the various sub-sectors to determine where I fit best, which led to the revision of my ninth goal (see Appendix B) to include the goal of “better understanding my desired role in the clean energy industry and the necessary steps to achieve these ambitions.” In addition, I wanted to enhance my skillset – which include interpersonal, communication and organizational skills – and complete the internship with a range of new skills. Through my position, I was fortunate enough to have many professional development experiences, which led to networking, outreach and leading and organizing meetings. Perhaps, the biggest lesson of all was how essential building your network will be to achieving your goals. This led to revision of my seventh goal to include networking and outreach as the desired skills I received. These two professional goals are reflective of what I hope to achieve in the future and hence why I took on my current internship.

Reflections on my Plant Engineering Summer Internship at United Parcel Service Introduction My Plant Engineering (PE) internship experience at United Parcel Service (UPS) allowed me to utilize all that I have learned at Florida Polytechnic University and apply it to real world work experience. Thus expanding upon my previous knowledge while simultaneously allowing me to grow in new ways that cannot be taught in the classroom. Interning at UPS has helped highlight my fortes and flaws as not only an engineering student, but also as a young adult entering the professional world. Through firsthand daily coaching and mentoring from senior engineers, I discovered that communication is the key to being successful as an individual and as a team. Encouraging social cognizance provides necessary balance within a company.
