			"(T)he internship was wonderful and beyond my expectations. ...The assignments, charrettes, and the people...ha(ve) given me a better perspective not only (of) the working environment of a firm but also raised my awareness (of) the rigorous standards (and) consistency required in a designer...and most importantly the crucial collaborations needed between various disciplines (within) teams to successfully complete the project....I greatly enjoyed this internship." 2006 Summer Intern "The summer internship at Sasaki was an excellent way to immerse myself in the daily workings of a thriving interdisciplinary design firm. I was looking to challenge and test the design skills I was learning in school, as well as to gain a sense of how a large, multifaceted firm gets projects built, and the internship provided opportunity for me to achieve both. The charrettes, field trips, and project-related work were planned thoughtfully and thoroughly by Sasaki, ensuring that the overall experience provided a well-balanced, stimulating opportunity for design exploration. The collaborative relationships I developed with my fellow interns and with the professionals at Sasaki were key to my early career development, and I would highly recommend the program." Susannah Ross, Harvard Design School ‘03 "Sasaki was my first exposure to interdisciplinary site design work. (During) the second week of the internship, I worked closely with two teams of interns who came from architectural or landscape architectural backgrounds. In many ways, this assignment mimicked the actual design process that occurs at Sasaki every day. Throughout the internship, I attended internal design meetings, made site construction visits, and attended meetings with the client. I worked on both local and international projects ranging from resorts to college athletic fields. This exposure to site civil engineering increased my confidence as an engineer. It was the most complete and educational of the four internships I attended before graduating and was an integral experience to furthering my professional career." Zach Chrisco, Tufts University, '03 "I was interested in the internal logic of the other disciplines and in how the interaction among them helped build the coherence of a project. I got to experience that by working on charettes and by being part of teams that were actually developing real projects. And there are parallel activities that are part of Sasaki's way of working - which I was able to attend, and that made the program even better. I really enjoyed the Design Forums and the manufacturer's products presentations. Above all, I would say that even though my professional expectations and interests were fulfilled, it was the atmosphere - the people, that really got my attention about the office."
