If you can't find anywhere with a private company, local councils may be more likely to give you a week's experience- try getting into the major projects team or something- I did a week with my local council there and it seemed to go down okay on my personal statement. Though tbh you're more likely to be surrounded by planners etc rather than "engineers"- only go to the council as a last resort I'd say.

I went onto the main website of deltarail, I think I should send them application as soon as I get back.
EES? is it a project that takes half a year if I remember it rightly?
I don`t think I v got engough time for this one.
but if it is possible ,I will try my best .
Thank u ..
