Ringling Design Student Discusses Her TSG Internship

By Barron Schimberg, AIA

We are big believers in the value of exposing design students to some real-world scenarios they might encounter after graduation. For the past four years, Schimberg Group has provided internships to students enrolled in the interior-design program at The Ringling College of Art + Design.

During the three to four months each intern works in our office, they assist us with projects such as drafting, design choices, rendering, field dimensioning, and administration. We also include them on construction site visits, so they can begin to see the connection between designs created on computers and the work involved with bringing concepts to fruition.

This year, we were thrilled that one of our interns, Sonika Fourie, talked about her experience at Schimberg Group in a video posted on YouTube.

“It’s been amazing,” said Fourie. “I’ve been learning a ton. I think it’s going to help me make a much smoother transition into the working world.” Ringling has included the video in their marketing materials for incoming students.
