    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • There is a business project that you work on with other interns and do a presentation at the end. There is a placement with a team, I worked in DS&I where I was doing research for a review paper and calibrating a large language model. The main thing to get out of the internship in my opinion, is to talk to as many different people as possible to gauge what you want to do.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • Yeah, I feel more confident when approaching office environment and reaching out to people. I also completed multiple DataCamp courses, which I have a certificate for. I acquired a new skill in reviewing academic papers and writing out my notes.
