I took part in the industry placement with Western Health in their engineering department in semester 1 2021 as part of the 'Internship' subject. For this I went into the hospital 3 days a week. After this experience working on reliability using my IT skills, I saw the Telstra project as a good opportunity to build further on the same topic.
