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. |
