Project Management Industry & Internship

Are you looking for a project management internship? Turning architectural dreams into reality, like the stunning pyramid-shaped Luxor Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, requires the contribution and coordinated effort of many construction trades. Each company taking part in a construction project has a project manager to plan, organize, and oversee the company’s contributions. They not only make sure their company gets their part of the job done but also on time, at or under budget, and in coordination with other trades. A project management internship will let you see a variety of project types in action. You’ll likely work on a team under the guidance of a project manager and be assigned a project within a larger project. You could help carry out cost estimation, create reports, or help with scheduling. You’ll learn about developing efficient workflows and see how project managers define goals and give directions. You’ll likely use Microsoft Project and Gantt Charts as part of your workflows.
