To qualify, candidates must be currently enrolled in a bachelor’s or master’s degree program in electrical, mechanical, civil, architectural, audio engineering, or a business-related field such as HR, marketing, finance, or IT. A genuine passion for the AEC industry and a desire to contribute to meaningful work is essential. Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a team are also important.
