As a mechanical engineering student that has also had an interest in architecture, this job could not have been a better fit for me! I am able to use skills in both to do my work which makes it really rewarding and enjoyable. I also like how the work is both a mix of office and fieldwork as it allows me to see and learn the trade in multiple ways to help me grow as an engineer!
What I wish was different
The only thing that I can come up with for this would simply be going out to more field visits to continue to explore the work that Karpinski does! Though this ended up being a covid restriction and not a company one and Karpinski did the best they could with getting me out to many field visits!
Advice
Make sure to ask questions when you are unsure about something to both make sure the project is done right and you understand what needed to be done so that you can do it on your own next time!
