The engineers I worked under were very open and responsive to questions you had even if it seemed like a dumb question. They have many resources that you can access to help with you in your classes specifically water-related courses.
What I wish was different
I wish there were more aspects of design since most of the work done was reviewing construction plans and specifications.
Advice
ASK QUESTIONS. You never know when you will encounter someone or something in the future and need the insight.
