I worked all summer, and they hire college kids for summer internships. I was an Engineer's Assistant, and mostly did the usual intern work, like editing papers, making copies, and helping the old people there who were trying to work their computers.

Worked all summer on water related structures. Met representatives at a Columbia Job Fair. Usual intern things. Some design, drafting, and a week onsite overseeing construction.

Construction of power plant (NYPA-500MW). I work as an assistant to the site superintendant, Tom Maxwell. My responsibilities mainly revolved around managing small areas of the total construction (i.e. driving sheets, pit excavation, T&M work, composing activity reports), overseeing some productivity, and also checking Asbuilt Plans to the Contract Drawings. It's primarily outdoor work, (not too much time in the trailer; not often making copies).
