Support from the Engineering Career Centre 

Badhwar credits the (ECC) at the Schulich School with helping her prepare for the opportunity. Through career fairs, networking events and one-on-one advising, she was able to connect directly with Arcurve representatives and identify companies that aligned with her personal and professional goals. 

鈥淭hey helped me understand what I was looking for and how to find companies that matched that," says Badhwar. 鈥淭he ECC advisors were really helpful in planning out my goals and guiding me toward the right fit.鈥� 

Bridging business and tech 

As a dual-degree student, Badhwar found the internship to be a perfect blend of interests. On the business side, she led stakeholder meetings, gathered project requirements and outlined deadlines, all of which helped her build communication, teamwork and leadership skills. On the technical side, she worked on user interface/user experience (UI/UX) design and development tasks. 

鈥淗aving both perspectives helped me translate business needs into technical solutions,鈥� says Badhwar. 鈥淚t really helped me see the bigger picture.鈥� 

One moment that stood out during her internship was when she designed a sleek, modern interface for a client鈥檚 website, only to learn that the client prioritized ease of use over innovation. That experience sparked a shift in her thinking. 

鈥淚 realized I needed to focus on what the user actually needs, not just what looks cool,鈥� says Badhwar. 鈥淚t taught me to lead with a user-first mindset.鈥� 

Real work, real impact 

Badhwar鈥檚 character and interdisciplinary background made her a standout candidate, says Joel Pollard, BSc鈥�96, senior director of people at Arcurve.

Arcurve鈥檚 internship program is designed to foster innovation and entrepreneurial thinking, Pollard adds. Interns are given the chance to lead their own community-focused projects, pitch ideas and manage execution, gaining experience beyond their technical roles.

Looking ahead 

Badhwar says the skills and connections she gained at Arcurve will stay with her as she moves forward in her career and possibly starts something of her own one day in the tech industry. 

鈥淚鈥檝e built meaningful relationships and gained mentors who will help me navigate both my career and life,鈥� Badhwar says. 鈥淚鈥檝e learned that innovation and creativity need to be front and centre when you鈥檙e building something new.鈥� 

Her advice to other students is to just go for it.  

鈥淚nternships are a great way to apply what you鈥檝e learned in class, make mistakes and grow. "You鈥檙e not expected to be perfect; you鈥檙e expected to learn,鈥� says Badhwar.
