Hey Jason I am a current Structural Engineering student with a Construction Management minor. I want to eventually become a Project Manager for a general contractor. I have an internship for a project engineer role this summer but I feel like I lack overall knowledge of what is going on in the site at all times. How would you recommend I prepare for the internship and for the transition from Structural Engineering to Construction Management?
