Engineering, scientific, and technical intern
May - August 2019 • Harrisburg, PA
What I liked
This internship was fun and laid back. I genuinely enjoyed working with the other employees and the work we were doing. I learned a lot about geology and its practical applications in roads we drive. I also applied my knowledge on environmental processes to conduct experiments to simulate weathering. This internship was enjoyable and allowed me to apply my education.
What I wish was different
Some weeks, few samples would come so it would get boring in the lab. I wish those slow periods did not happen as often.
Advice
Be prepared to get dirty but have fun when in the lab. Working with rocks and sodium sulfates is messy so be prepared.

PennDOT Flagger
May - August 2019 • Manns Choice, PA
What I liked
I liked that it was only a few miles from my house and had good pay where I could help pay my bills for college and utilities.
What I wish was different
I wish that it wasn't a male-dominated field because they tend to think less of you if you are female.
