Recent Internee

I am Kanika Vyas, a 3rd year Environmental Engineering student from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. I have done a short internship in SACEP and it has a very delightful working experience. During my internship period I have acquired in depth knowledge about SACEP’s ongoing projects and also other areas of Regional concern. The program officers and Project Coordinators have been very encouraging and enlightened me about many aspects of SACEP. I have also been given the opportunity in assisting various matters such as writing articles for the newsletter and designing of 25th anniversary souvenir. This experience has made me certain that I would like to continue my learning process here in the future.
