The Opportunity
On this year-long Industrial Placement, you'll work alongside skilled professionals and from day one, you will be working on real-life meaningful projects - adding value to clients, while exploring opportunities with curiosity and creativity.
You'll learn from others and begin creating your professional network ready for when you graduate. There are regular learning sessions with our management team, opportunities for site visits to local projects, and all kinds of social events that will promote your learning and development.
Our aim is to welcome as many students back into our other programmes, be that another internship or potential graduate position. This placement is the stepping stone to your future.
Our projects range in scale from the inception of major infrastructure down to small alterations to existing structures. Some are pure art; others exist only to be functional. They are all rooted in our core desire to shape a better world and to do work that is interesting and rewarding. One of our teams is helping finish Gaudi's astonishing church of La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, another is fixing significant problems that threaten a hospital. One team is reimagining the use of an existing commercial building, another is designing the stations for a new railway line.
We are looking for Structural Engineering Industrial Internship Students to join our well-established Buildings teams. This is an excellent opportunity for a student that is passionate and knowledgeable about the Building Design sector to join a multi-disciplinary team.
The role includes:
1. Carrying out structural calculations, analysis, and modelling.
2. Design: Finding structural engineering solutions. Choosing structures and details that are economical and practical, that minimise embodied carbon and achieve the project's sustainable development goals.
3. Communication: through drawings, sketches, digital modelling, calculation documents, building information modelling, meetings, presentations, discussions, emails, written reports, and electronic messages.
4. Working with teams: liaising, helping others, taking instructions, giving instructions, solving problems, thinking beyond the conventional, helping to find new and effective ways to succeed. Treating others with respect, kindness, and empathy.
5. Learning: the practice of structural engineering, codes of practice, software, materials, and construction techniques as well as all the other disciplines and people that are needed to design and deliver a project successfully.
6. Planning your work: Agreeing deadlines and working together effectively with the rest of the team.
7. Investing time in people: developing relationships with your project team and your peers and everyone in the office. Contributing to the life of the team. Working with and living the Arup values: as set out in Ove Arup's Key Speech.
