Abstract

The present document describes the activities carried out during the 6-month internship at Iconos Construcciones y Consultorías SAS. The purpose of the internship was to integrate and optimize theoretical skills in the Civil Engineering sector with professional experience, articulated with teamwork and project leadership. During the internship, technical support was provided to six ongoing projects of the company, where knowledge and skills were acquired in various areas. Firstly, participation in the public bidding process allowed recognition of the legal and technical requirements necessary for proposal submission. Additionally, work was done on project scheduling, where planning and control of construction projects were learned. There was also an opportunity to support project financial structuring, which allowed understanding of how construction projects are financed and what key factors are necessary for their success. During a certain period of the internship, the role of on-site resident was performed, which allowed learning about the details of construction processes and the dynamics of the on-site team. Finally, experience was gained in administrative tasks related to projects and the company, which allowed learning more about the internal functioning of the organization and proper project management. The business internship at Iconos Construcciones y Consultorías SAS was an enriching experience, during which knowledge and skills were acquired in various areas of civil construction, which allowed laying solid foundations for professional practice.
