Dodd Group Bids Farewell to Promising Placement Student, Milya Arisya Mohd Asyraf

This week, Dodd Group’s South West Projects team said a warm farewell to Milya Arisya Mohd Asyraf as she concludes her placement year and returns to the University of Plymouth to complete her degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering.

During her time with the team, Milya gained hands-on experience across a wide range of roles from attending client and design meetings to shadowing contracts managers on site. Her placement offered a dynamic and immersive introduction to the construction and building services industry.

Reflecting on her journey, Milya shared, “When I started, I had little to no experience in Building Services. Now, I not only understand how things are done, but why. That shift in perspective was huge.” She particularly enjoyed the pre-construction phase, describing the tender process as “incredibly rewarding.”

Milya credited the experience with sharpening her adaptability, collaboration skills, and professional confidence. “Being involved in real-world engineering tasks gave me clarity and motivation for my future. I feel more connected to the industry and inspired to keep learning and growing.”

We thank Milya for her dedication and valuable contributions to the team, and we wish her every success in her final year and future career.
