Work

The internship was about research in gas turbine engines, and design in the CAD software Catia V5. This internship enabled me to learn about the various tools used, and how to assemble parts in Catia V5. The impact this internship had on me was significant in many ways:(i) Designing the engine on CAD helped me practice 3D drawing, and I have greatly improved; (ii) I could choose my own software to design the turbojet, which gave me the freedom of using a new cad software and gain experience in it. Until then, I did not have much experience in the field of research, however this internship gave me the chance to understand and learn about it, which has opened new doors to explore. Now I like the field of research due to this internship, and I am looking forward to doing more research projects in the future.

Experience

While doing the research for this project, I went through a lot of papers and studies. This project felt less like work and more like education, which was interesting. The project supervisor from the College of Aviation Technology was extremely helpful and guided me through the whole project. If given the chance, I would love to work with IAESTE Bangladesh again. Turbojets have always fascinated me, and now being able to research and design one is a wonderful experience. Initially using Catia V5 was a little difficult, however having used my existing knowledge about CAD in other software's such as Siemens NX and Creo parametric helped me to get comfortable with the software after a few hours of designing.

Discover

I have done most of my studies in theory, and after doing this internship, I gained some industry experience, and realized there is a practical aspect of my field of study. Being able to apply theoretical knowledge has strenghtened my interest in the field of mechanical engineering. I can confidently say I wouldn’t have grown and learned as much as I have these past 4 weeks without the guidance of the research supervisor. This 'work from home' internship was a really great opportunity for me as I had a lot of free time. As a result of this experience, I’m more excited than ever to pursue a career in design and feel well-equipped to take on a role of a design engineer. This project has also increased my interest in the field of research and design - it was a great learning experience outside of classroom.
