Projects Internship

This would be similar to an accelerated Project Engineer Trainee process, where the intern would be exposed to all areas of the business.  Time may be spent in our drafting, estimating and production departments, as well as time working on the fabrication shop floor, visiting job sites, and interacting directly with Project Managers and Project Engineers on active projects.  The length of the internship and the specific areas of focus will be based on the school schedule and availability of anyone selected.

• Determine and define scope of work and deliverables.

• Issue progress updates as needed regarding costs and timelines.
• Ensure work is done in compliance with all relevant building and safety codes.
