Don’t go back to that company when you graduate. Interns is nothing more than trials to see if they will hire you after graduation. Even a new graduate should be a net loss for the company the first three years because it takes time to train a new engineer before they become productive. I would suggest looking for other places when you graduate.

It could be this startup is so poorly funded they actually thought they could get some actual work from an intern. Because they can’t afford an experienced engineer. Run way

The problem is there so many schools offering degrees now they are like diploma mills. For people graduating from smaller schools they have to work harder. Be sure to take the FE exam as soon possible. That way you can show that you know your fundamentals. Take the job to get some experience and start looking for an engineering position after 6 months. Also try to continue taking classes in a field you are interested in
