This internship will gain me some experience of working in a collaborative environment with engineers as well as programmers. The tasks are related to the areas of my knowledge and interests. Overall, it’s a great opportunity for me to get my foot in the door of a cooperate world.
The employer is looking for a software engineer student who is currently pursuing a bachelor’s in either Computer Science, Computer engineering, or any other discipline related to software development. The basic qualification for the internship is a prior experience in one or more high-level programming languages (Java, C++, C, C#) and/or completion of a major coursework in computer programming.
I have been programming in Java and C for more than a year and a have an extensive understanding of the library functions and ability to solve computing problems efficiently. I have completed related coursework such as advance Java and C programming classes with some major technical projects that gave a brief understanding of software development, user interface, and programming procedure. I love challenging myself with programming questions from Leetcode and Project Euler, and I have been writing an algorithm for a complex problem and helping the coding community to fix bugs at StackOverlow. I have built upon my problem-solving skill; and thus, I feel very comfortable in facing the toughest
Through a partnership with Northrop Grumman, I develop my own projects with mentorship from a team of engineers. During my junior year, I utilized Java Eclipse and Android to develop and copyright a mobile application that digitized my high school’s school map, making navigation much easier for students. Due to my spectacular performance, Northrop Grumman offered me a paid summer internship. In collaboration with a team of my peers and the public works superintendent of the Fairfield Waterworks facility, I built a robot capable of diagnosing cracks and leaks in water main pipes. Over the summer, I also attended an eight-hour workshop about soldering electronics. This project garnered several awards at the Ohio State Technology and Engineering Showcase. Now, I am currently developing a low-cost Arduino-powered smartphone with WiFi capabilities.
Internship is a six to eight weeks working experience in any organization. The purpose behind doing an internship is to get familiar with a professional working environment. Often students do internships during there vacations so as to gain experience in their field of interest. Students studying engineering, computer science, textiles or business management; they are required to perform at least an internship so as to receive degree from their respective institutions. The purpose of writing this essay is to share my wonderful working experience as an internee at Spyglass Winery. I loved every minute of it as I discovered several new skills and came across with some interesting job opportunities. This statistical analysis (www.fasttrackinternships.com) shows the rate of full time job placements according to the number of internships completed.
An internship can also heighten the awareness of community issues, motivates to create opportunities, embrace new ideas, and give direction to positive change. A successful internship can provide valuable information in making decisions about the direction of future studies or employment. An internship is an opportunity to not only use and develop industry-related knowledge and skills, but also to enhance some of the skills that are transferable to any professional work setting. For some people, the internship is the first introduction to the world of work. No matter where the skills and understanding of professionalism lie, internship is a chance to develop them even further.
This internship fits within my career plan to help governments use technology better. I want to be part of how such as TechCongress, 18F, USDS, and the Presidential Innovation Fellows are redefining how technology
In the field of Software Engineering, students have a plethora of internships available to them. Despite having so many choices available to them, students must narrow their options to internships that will benefit them the most. Two particular Software Engineering internships that stand out among the others are Animusoft’s Software Engineering internship and Microsoft’s Explorer program. Based out of Miami, Florida, Animusoft promises students the chance to work on exciting team projects while learning about software engineering in a professional setting (Animusoft LLC). Microsoft’s Explorer program, on the other hand, is based out of Redmond, Washington and offers students the opportunity to gain experience in software development
I am ready to challenge myself to learn the dynamics of how a large company works and communicates along with exploring new fields in STEM. I am ready and willing to learn and accomplish whatever is required. I would enjoy learning how to code as this is a skill that I could use to improve my robotics team greatly. I am also interested in learning more about media protection and company branding. The skills I will learn through this internship will help guide my career choice in STEM and prepare me for college. No matter what career in the area of STEM I chose to go into, I know that communication, technical skills and business management will be necessary skills to have to provide quality results. I look forward to listening to, learning from, and leading
Internship is a period of work experience offered by an employer to give people (usually college students and graduates) exposure to the working environment. It gives them an opportunity to get first-hand experience. The growing need for practical learning led to the emergence of internship. It helps to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience. Internships in any form- paid, unpaid or co-operative learning has now become a standard practice for college students. It has
The internship, even though it includes actual operation of the facilities of the employer, is similar to training which would be given in an educational environment;
Planning is probably the most complex and hardest part of project management, and its where Lockheed Martin has its biggest downfall. How does one establish correctly how long it will take to complete something that has never been done? When do you start working on part C of the project when you’re on part A. All of these issues are resolved with proper techniques in project management such as Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), Statement of Work (SOW), and proper preparation throughout numerous meetings. Every single player in the project has a major key in some form, may it be the sponsor with the funding or the line manager with resource allocation. Proper planning will account every single person, object, goal, and action to be performed. It
Upon completion of my mechanical engineering degree, I will commission into the United States Air Force as a Second Lieutenant, and enter the “profession of arms” tasked with the defense of our country. As a mechanical engineering student, with the scientific and technological understanding similar to those mentioned above, I have thought about the engineering of weapons that make our military incredibly well equipped and advantaged in conflict. Learning in this course however, we have been taught about the expectation of an engineer to “promote the welfare of human beings”, which conflicts with intent and design of weaponry. This yields the moral issue that is the focus of this essay; how does an engineer morally justify the engineering or weapons systems developed to damage or kill human property, infrastructure, and people.
Disney provides a wide range of professional internships, many of which lie in the field of engineering. The Engineering Professional Internship takes place in summer 2017 at Lake Buena Vista, Florida, United States. This position is open to students currently enrolled in a Bachelor's degree at an accredited university majoring in an Engineering discipline. Interns would work closely with the Facilities Operation Services Team and contribute to planning and improvement of new and existing attractions and facilities. A successful applicant would be required to provide software services for attractions and demonstrate strong project management skills when working in construction planning for Walt Disney World Resort. A task I am most interested
Animusoft considers the understanding of web technologies as a plus rather than a requirement like Netro. They require students to be majoring in IT, Computer Science, and Software Engineering. On the other hand, Netro requires a working knowledge of Wireframe Prototyping in the computing technologies. It is obvious that Netro is not as lenient as Animusoft when it comes to internship requirements. Animusoft states that students should have basic coding experience in C, C++, C#, Objective C, Java, Javascript, HTML, SQL, XML, and other various programming languages.
An internship is a position that offers hands on practical experience."Internship program is one of the ways of putting our theoretical knowledge into the practical work place, which is being the important roadmap for the students before entering into any jobs.” The delegation of internship program has always been prioritized by the Tribhuvan University (TU). Internship is very helpful to students to apply theory and skills learnt in College for personal development. Internship is also helpful to realize the real world before making any commitment, outline the specific career, work environment and work to be handled.
For this experience I obtained through my final year project, in which I need to design and manufacture a simple device. I may need to use some tools I had never use before such as the electric drill. That project is basically about wave energy converter. This experience broaden my knowledge about engineering as general and allows me to learn things that I cannot obtained in class such as real engineering design experience where I need to planed, drew and even manufactured my own design with the help of workshop during my final year project, while in this internship I experience firsthand how to manage and checking an ongoing project in such a huge scale and also how a team should work in big group compared to a small group of 4-5 people in class.
In this report, I will reflect upon the challenges and learning experiences I faced during my internship at BINUS Career in Jakarta, Indonesia. I spent three weeks working in the social media department, with the aim of improving their social media presence and advertising success. This project was a team based one and I worked closely with my partner on all stages of the project. As I did not have a background in human resources or marketing, the first challenge was applying my knowledge and research skills from my major in sociology to a new discipline. In this report, I will reflect upon my experiences in working on a team project, difficulties with cross-cultural communication and improving my problem-solving skills and initiative. Throughout the report, I will utilise the 5Rs of Reflection cited in Anon to analyse my experience (Anon, n.d.). This will consist of ‘reporting’ by describing my experience, ‘responding’, by describing my emotional response to the situation, ‘relating’ to the literature, ‘reasoning’ by explaining how the literature influences my thinking and ‘reconstructing’ by explaining what this learning experience means to me.
