25th of October 2013 - I have learned how to apply my knowledge in practice. Due to the interviews with different stakeholders and residents i learned to understand the socio-economic issues related to a flood event. Furthermore i have finished a literature study and gained experience in how to use a literature study for scientific research.

My internship is going well. I have learned a lot of new things and didn't face any problems.

My internship is reaching my expectations, besides the learning part i have met a lot of new ( American) people, have already seen a lot of the American culture and gained experience in the civil engineering industry.
