Jens Kristian Dahl
Nothing prepares you for the real world like the real world
"To me being a student assistant means that I can apply what I learn at university to projects in the real world. I'm learning what it is like to work as an engineer."
Jens Kristian Dahl became a student assistant in COWI Wind Energy and Renewables Management as an undergraduate for a number of reasons.
"In busy periods I want to prioritise university, but I also want to work with highly competent professionals, who share their knowledge and experience. At COWI I can work on separate parts of projects, add real value and be part of the team."
Annas Jadi
Annas believes diversity helps create a positive difference
"I see building bridges between engineers and economists as one of the most important and interesting tasks moving a business like COWI into the future."
Annas Jadi studies Industrial Engineering and Management at DTU and works in COWI Finance as a student assistance.
"At COWI I get challenged with complex and exciting projects. It’s a forward thinking, ambitious and internationally minded company. In my team we are 5 or 6 different nationalities, which creates a special atmosphere. And with offices all over the world I see great opportunities to work in other countries.”
Emmely Vigsø
Emmely joined for the water
And found it right next to the fun
"I learn so much from my colleagues and the projects, that I would never get from studying alone". Emmely Vigsø studies Environmental Engineering at DTU and is a student assistant in Policy, planning and infrastructure.
"I am a bit of a water nerd and wanted to work at a big place with competent people and exciting projects. At COWI I work on real projects with a high degree of independence and responsibility, but also with help and support from the team.
On top of that everyone is friendly and helpful. We have a focus on wellbeing, so not everything is work and water, but also social events, Friday bars and so on."
Jens Bro Ross
One-to-one sparring and discussions with the most competent specialists
"From university we are almost used to the professors not having time to answer questions. At COWI I'm surrounded by "professors", who love to talk and explain about our work."
Jens joined COWI's Buildings division as a bachelor from DTU and works part time while studying bearing structures.
"It can be a difficult balance when it’s busy at university, but working with real projects gives experience, I just couldn't get elsewhere. I'm surrounded by colleagues senior to me that are eager to discuss the projects and provide sparring. It’s a steep and fast learning process, but I'm sure it'll pay off in the end.”
