At Alberici, our interns work on a variety of projects in a number of markets (including Building, Energy, Healthcare, Heavy Industrial, Structural Steel, Water/Wastewater, as well as in Detailing, Estimating, Safety and Marketing) so it is hard to describe a typical day because days at Alberici are anything but typical.

A standard day would include project staff & owner/subcontractor meetings, walking the project site, checking on the status of materials ordered, working on submittals, RFI’s, Corrective Action Reports, etc.

Adam Gacioch, a Project Engineer who spent two summers in the internship program, detailed a typical day working in our Healthcare market:
