    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

    • It was not very easy to learn how to do MBSE at first but when I got the hang of it things started to get easier. I was treated as a part of a professional team and my work was delivered to customers so I have not just gained so much experience but I have also contributed to the team.

    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?

    • I have greatly improved my time management skills, interpersonal skills. MBSE also uses interpersonal and analytical skills so those were also greatly improved. I am now more of a fast paced learner and I have more of an attention to detail.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

    • I have not just delivered a decent amount of modelled systems to the end customer, but I have also been given the responsibility of conducting an internal review of members of the team's work and in some cases actually recreating that work so I was given a huge amount of responsibility.

  • Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
