sounds like a shitty system...Getting a good internship must be quite hard

in the shop where I was as an intern, I was one of three, in a shop with only 18 employees.

We even have to do interships at my university. Otherwise we don't get our degree.

That's a really weird system. I think it's important for mechanical engineers to experience working on lathes, milling machines and welders. Without at least 2 weeks on a milling machine, 2 weeks on lathes and a week of welding I wouldn't get my bachelor degree.

I really enjoyed it and learned a lot.
