Position Overview

Are you interested in a hands-on real-world learning experience directly related to the skills needed in a full-time construction career?  In this internship, you will have the opportunity to develop, participate and learn key roles and functions within construction management.

It's our goal to offer an educational hands-on work experience that will assist students in their career decision. Our internship program offers an opportunity to gain valuable experience including estimating new tunnel projects and/or field engineering and project management when assigned to an ongoing project. Working on a project site, responsibilities may include engineering support, which consists of temporary engineering and AutoCAD work, preparing daily and weekly reports, documenting project changes, subcontractor management, submittals, and materials procurement.

District Overview

McNally is one of the premier U.S. tunneling contractors and has had great success in the past with utility, sanitary, and transportation tunnels in places throughout the United States and Canada. Tunnel construction requires unique methods of problem solving and is an excellent way to utilize and expand your knowledge of various engineering disciplines as well as construction management via first-hand experience. With the continued aging of our infrastructure coupled with significant population growth in many areas of the world, the need to replace and build additional tunnels for transportation, water, and sewer systems is creating a surplus of exciting job opportunities.

One of the many things that makes Kiewit’s culture unique is that we go where the work is, which exposes your career to abundant opportunities. We relocate our teams based on the work that is available, combined with the development plans, skill sets and career goals of each team member.
