HEAPY

“As a incoming Sophomore taking this co-op I was aware that I would not be getting assigned tasks that would be assigned if I was a Junior or Senior in college. However, I still had responsibilities every day I came in the office. I would always ask if any of my colleagues had any work for me to do such as creating sheets, fixing schedules, piping up a building, changing specs, or finalize a project with markups. If there wasn't work for me to do I would then watch training videos to help understand the tasks that were given to me. ”

“My responsibilities at Heapy were mainly to support the plumbing engineers and designers. I used the software Revit to draw plumbing systems. This included existing conditions, demolition work, and new construction. As well as various other tasks such as correcting markups a designer may have made on drawings. Overall, for this being my first co-op, I am very happy with how it went. My colleagues were very smart, friendly people who were always very helpful in answering the many questions I asked throughout the summer. This allowed me to learn so much about something that I had just about zero knowledge on prior. It showed me how much Heapy cares greatly about their co-ops and want them to learn and grow throughout their time there.”
