In Their Own Words

Firsthand perspectives from former interns and co-op students

Izabel Kurbanova
“Throughout my co-op term at HGC, I learned to perform different noise and vibration tests on a variety of sites. Using STAMSON and CadnaA, the collected data was applied and analyzed to provide mitigation recommendations. During the whole process from site visits to analysis, there was always someone from the team providing support, which allowed me to explore a lot of different projects. Overall, I was surprised by how much noise and vibration affect all aspects of engineering and would highly recommend this experience to gain an understanding of the field.”

“Working as a co-op student provided a well-rounded introduction to the field of acoustics. I was able to work with multiple divisions, which allowed me to see what type of work I enjoyed. The HGC team was very welcoming and always willing to explain concepts or provide resources, which helped me to gain both theoretical and practical knowledge which I was able to apply when I began as a full-time employee.”
