2017th grade comes to graduation season this summer. Graduation practice is one of the important segments for the comprehensive capacities of students and the important segment of internship in Civil Engineering. The aims of graduation practice include the following:
1) To apply the theoretical knowledge to engineering project, collecting the documents of architectural design, structural design and construction organization.
2) To master the procedures and methods of civil engineering design.
3) To further understand the building methods of beams and columns and the current expressing technique of different structures.
4) To basically master the procedures of construction organization and design.
9 boys in 171 and 172 class who stay in Hangzhou are doing the internship in the campus site. The building’s function is Industry-study-research. The internship are interactive experiences that enhance our understanding of real construction practices.
Let see what they said:
Group leader Akram:
Site visits create an interactive learning environment for us and provide exposure to a real-world spatiotemporal experience of a construction project. Seeing a project in action far surpasses the blueprint: Students witness a tangible example of how to design and build things well, from the schedule to the budget, through all the engineering challenges in between, and it encourages students to see the many facets involved in a project. The importance of internship and other real-world opportunities for engineering students adds new dimensions that come from seeing classroom concepts practiced firsthand.the students trying to analyze how the content in the classroom applies to what we saw on site. The fruit of excitement and “aha” moments plucked from the internship often shows up in our response assignments.
Group leader AL-SHAMI:
During three weeks , we understood a lot of things in the construction site , for example : we have learnt a lot about the piles ,basements , excavation , masonry , beams and columns . Also we have used Autocard file to check the layout of the building and we measured everything. Making a good relationship with the workers in the construction site was one of our goals . We knew the work and the management of the site company . The internship helped us a lot to understand the work . Thank you so much for Pro. Huang for helping us to get this chance to make our internship here.
