Abstract

This internship aimed to strengthen professional skills in Civil Engineering through participation in the development of construction projects carried out by A.J. Constructores y Consultores S.A.S., supporting activities such as quantity surveying, analysis of unit prices (APU), architectural design, drawing preparation, topographic surveys, document control, and technical monitoring of the projects. The methodology used was practical, based on performing activities typical of professional practice, utilizing tools such as AutoCAD and Microsoft Excel, as well as surveying equipment, and complying with current technical and urban planning regulations. As a result, competencies were consolidated in plan interpretation, budget preparation, architectural design, document management, and applying regulations for obtaining building permits. Additionally, contributions were made toward standardizing budget templates, organizing drawing formats, optimizing document control, and strengthening the company's technical processes. Ultimately, the experience demonstrated the importance of integrating field and office activities, using technological tools, and standardizing processes to improve efficiency in civil engineering project management, with recommendations focused on implementing BIM methodologies, centralized document management, and optimizing internal procedures, thereby contributing to the continuous improvement of the organization and enhancing the student's professional development.
