SEH professionals often volunteer their time to mentor youth, provide career advice, and provide them with job shadowing opportunities.
Jeff Johnson, PE, serves as the SEH Practice Leader for Structural Engineering in Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Recently, Jeff Johnson was shadowed by Spencer Louis, an eighth grader from Grantsburg, Wisconsin.
My experience was very fun. I met several workers and they were extremely nice and intelligent. The reason I came was for Job Shadow Day, and because all eighth graders are required to do it at Grantsburg Middle School. I was lucky to get a very nice man named Jeff Johnson, a structural engineer at SEH. We spent the morning going to do a bridge inspection in Cottage Grove, Minnesota. It was very interesting. I learned man y things I’ve never known before. I also got the chance to see the Swing Bridge in Inver Grove Heights (Minnesota) as well, and that was the best part of the day. It was definitely worth the long drive from Grantsburg.
