• Utilizing design software (Revit and others) to produce electrical drawings
• Supporting the Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) team in 3D modeling and coordination
• Assisting with technical reports, research, and equipment specifications
• Collaborating with mechanical, plumbing, and other engineering disciplines to ensure a fully coordinated approach
• Learning about building codes, standards, and energy-efficient design practices

What You’ll Learn:

• Electrical System Design: Gain hands-on experience in designing and laying out electrical systems for commercial and industrial buildings, including power distribution and lighting.
• Software Proficiency: Learn to use industry-standard design tools like Revit to create and update electrical drawings.
• Collaboration & Coordination: Work closely with other engineering disciplines to ensure cohesive, coordinated project designs.
• Technical Knowledge: Develop an understanding of electrical calculations, building codes, standards, and sustainable design practices.
• Technology Integration: Explore advanced technologies such as 3D modeling and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) systems and learn how AI is integrated into engineering workflows.
• Professional Development: Improve communication, problem-solving, and project management skills in a real-world engineering environment.

These objectives aim to provide interns with a well-rounded understanding of electrical engineering in the context of MEP design.

What We’re Looking For:
We are searching for driven individuals with a passion for engineering, innovation, and continuous improvement. You’ll be a good fit if you:

• Are currently pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field
• Have basic knowledge of electrical system design and calculations
• Are familiar with Revit or other related design software (preferred but not required)
• Have strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Are detail-oriented and eager to learn
• Can work collaboratively in a team environment
