Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role is to help out public health engineers in their everyday tasks. Some of the task I have done include drafting residential buildings' drainage system schematic drawings, calculating water demand for a new development, contacting manufacturers to obtain technical data such as pressure to flow rate charts. I also attended a few site visits to better understand the concepts of some of the projects we worked on.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Decent amount of responsibilities, but the importance of it are reasonable in the sense where if mistakes were done they would not badly impact the overall result of the project. So much to learn but at the same time not much pressure.
