Dear Program Coordinators, Mentor and other Interns,
My name is Shequanah Anderson, one of the interns from the Environmental Engineering Department.
First, I want to say thank you to Professor Michel
Boufadel, the Chairman of Environmental Engineering Department, for providing such a wonderful working environment for us. We experienced the real life as young engineers and professionals. I also want to say thank you to Bilal Knah, the program coordinator from EE Department. I want to say thank you for showing us the sieve analysis experiment and the Alaska Project and enriching my engineering knowledge. I felt very grateful that Environmental Engineering Department and PYN were very impressed by our work and spoke highly of the tasks we completed.
I also want to say thank you to Cici, my mentor, for well organizing and execuating our daily plan. Your leadership and supervision throughout the summer assisted me in further development of my working and communications skills as well as my ability to implement individual projects and function as a leading contributor on various team projects within the engineering. You really showed me a lot and I learned how to do the podcast and how to put research recordings to our blog. Besides, I improved my excel skills through learning the data collection and sieve graph analysis. During this internship program, not only did I learn the environmental engineering knowledge such as storm water management and microogranism, but also the useful information technology skills.
Last but not least, I want to say thank you to all the internship program creators and organizors for showing me the importance of working skills and team cooperation. I also want to thank the entire interns in the engineering program for taking the time to share their expertise and knowledge of the field. It was through these times that I felt I was able to learn and grow the most in developing my professional skills over the course of the summer. The interns were most responsive to my requests and always made me feel like a full-time member of the group.
I really had a good time with our mentor Cici and other interns. It was fun getting to know everybody's personality and getting close to them, because it helps me better learn how to work in a group with positive attitude. If you work as a team, you will get the complicated tasks done more effective and quicker. More importantly, the internship program shows me how to pursue my career dreams and to become a better participant in the team.
Thank all the interns, mentor and program coordinators once again!
Sincerely,
Shequanah Anderson
r the youth, but furthermore the community. Skills that I have picked up over the years, I have redefined and build on through this program. Skills such as leadership, teamwork, and enthusiasm that will have an even greater impact on my life as I grow further in my profession field. Along with the internal skills we have learned and fine tuned our technological literacy, verbal communication skills, and our total ability to meet and greet in a professional setting. The whole experience has been tremendous and the general direction that it sends the students into is awesome.
