Abstract

As a commitment to civil engineering and its relevance within the development of society, an internship exercise was carried out to consolidate professional training in this field. The main objective of this document is to give an account of the activities that were developed as part of the internship made with the Tunja Mayor's Office for the supervision of different civil works. Therefore, daily records (logs) were taken for each advanced process, considering the grouping of different types of interventions by the Ministry of Infrastructure. Additionally, photographic records were made that served as evidence of the work carried out and the personal and professional contributions made to the internship. This document contains not only these records as evidence, but also a reflection on the relevance of the internship as a complement to training as a civil engineer, but also on the contributions that can be achieved through professional practice. In addition, knowledge of the real needs and dynamics of the labor field in Colombia stands out. It is worth noting that significant contributions were made for the verification and supervision of the planning stages of the construction of sports venues; the renovation and construction of sewerage networks; the development of neighborhood acts as a community work; leveling, spreading and compaction of granular subbase; and finally, to the construction of concrete slabs. All this within the contextual framework of the application of the Development Plan “Tunja in Equip 2016-2019” which contemplates the improvement of public space in the city of Tunja for coexistence, as well as the expansion of parks and neighborhood meeting and recreation areas and sidewalk. In a conclusive way, it is argued in favor of internships as spaces for learning and linking with the labor field of civil engineering in Colombia.
