• Develop well written system documentation, clearly defined iterative new features, and documented process flows
• Present your final project to the team and peers
• Have a better idea of what you want or don’t want out of your career

The Work: What type of work will you be doing? What assignments, requirements, or skills will you be performing on a regular basis?

• Define and manage a list of priorities
• Communicate your plan, progress, impediments and deadlines
• Gather information independently, from existing documentation, completed tasks, development notes and from asking questions
• Develop an effective template for system documentation within the internship timeframe
