Sophomore year internship

I recently received an internship placement in a Resident Engineer (RE) Office for a department of transportation working on construction projects.

I’m a civil engineering student and I’m trying to figure out how valuable this type of experience is long-term. I’m interested in civil engineering overall, but I’m still deciding whether I want to focus more on design/consulting work or construction/project management.

For those who have done similar internships:

•	Is working in a Resident Engineer office considered good experience for civil engineering students?

•	Does field/construction experience early in your career help if you eventually want to move into design engineering?

•	Would it be better to try to get an internship that focuses more on design (CAD, modeling, calculations) instead?

I possibly might have another offer for a design internship

Also is the DOT a good place to intern? Even if i don’t want to work there post grad?

Any advice from people who have gone through similar internships would be really helpful. I’m trying to figure out whether this is a strong opportunity or if I should try to pursue something more design-focused.

Thanks!
