About You
My experience at Arup was completely outstanding. I had carried out summer placements at 2 other companies prior to working at Arup but none of them had been this satisfactory.
Arup company provides the best possible working environment where everyone is quite approachable and friendly.
The guidance provided to me was outstanding and has helped me improve my performance in the university.
My placement was limited to 4 weeks. But within these 4 weeks, I ended up gathering substantial Reinforced Concrete design skills which i lacked prior to joining Arup. Being an intern at Arup also acted as a motivation enabling me to win an award at University.
The Company
The programme I followed during my internship was very well structured.
Everyone was friendly and approachable. Everyone seem to share similar vision ie. they wanted me to make the most out of my internship and learn as much as I can.
Everything Else
I was paid very satisfactory sum of money.
I would recommend Arup to every civil engineering student.
