Abstract
The City of Naperville has many talented engineers that are constantly working and bettering the city of Naperville. Thanks to their various projects, this business project was able to focus on replacing a water main in a small roundabout in Naperville. Over the course of six months, the company and mentor provided the needed knowledge which was required for designing and knowing how and where to install the new water main. The mentor also provided the knowledge and guidance to pick out the best materials for the job for both creating a good replacement and staying within a reasonable budget. Overall, the best knowledge and experience gained was learning how to use a different software for designing floor plans and sewage systems, and also being able to come across real-world challenges such as time restraints and company budgets. Toward the end of the six months, the business mentor was also able to teach the basics of the JAVA coding language, and was able to lead a small exercise in creating the card game "21."
