Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The internship was split into two phases. Firstly the audit had to be conducted, this required walking round campus to specific rooms and collecting the data on an Ipad. This would be automatically uploaded to an Excel document. Once complete, using the excel document we were required to find and highlight any major differences between what was expected from the Audit and what was actually found and any other statistics that may be of use.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was very interesting seeing the 'behind the scenes' operations of the university that I wouldn't think twice about if I hadn't completed the internship.

Thoroughly. Being on my feet all day for the first part of the internship and going to areas of the campus that I never would otherwise was very enjoyable. It was also a nice feeling knowing that work I completed will actually be used to improve the university.
