Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role is that of an MEP intern. I get various tasks on a day to day basis. Most of my tasks revolve around one particular project where I get tasks such creating databases, doing some work on Revit and handling tasks related to UKPN. If there is a relevant meeting to this project, I am included and take notes of my duties.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was handed some responsibility with many tasks and dealing with situations with people outside Buro Happold.

Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I have developed my skills with Excel, I was not as good coming into this internship but handling many Excel documents during my time here has developed this skill. I have learnt how to use Revit, which is a very important software in this field. I have also learnt how to use DIALux and Bluebeam.
