My Internship Reflection as an Embedded Engineering

Abstract

My internship was with The Method Part, one of the smaller engineering corporations within Erlangen. It has engineering and consulting departments and I worked at the engineering department. There are almost 50 engineers, however, there were only 5 people in the office due to the COVID pandemic. Most of them work remotely. My goal was to use what I learned at Kalamazoo College and discover my strengths and weaknesses in my work ethic, programming skills, and communication. I have taken computer science classes since my freshman year of college; I knew how to program but did not know how the things I learned would be applied within a workplace. It was as if I had memorized a cooking recipe but never stood in the kitchen and did not know how the taste would be.
