Hi Aleksandra.
Your resume is already in very good shape. I work in water resources/environmental engineering and found it very easy to read, and very well formatted. All of my comments for you are very small, and for the most part, would consider completely optional.
Great job! Please find your resume reviewed and attached with comments which I will also paste below.
-if you wanted to keep your contact info to one line, you could probably get rid of "http://www." since most people know how to search for someone on LinkedIn. However this certainly isn't a big deal.
-I think this summary is absolutely great. This is not a recommendation to change it at all, but just another way to think about how you want to present yourself.
"Committed Environmental Engineering graduate student with a background in Mechanical Engineering"
This presents your Environmental degree first. If your mechanical background had any focus on an environmental emphasis, you could add more, such as the following:
"Committed Environmental Engineering graduate student with a background in Mechanical Engineering and an emphasis on development of green technologies" (this is just an example).
- SWMM, not SWIMM (I work with it all the time so it caught my eye)
- This is another personal preference. Consider moving your education below Work History. I would still leave it above Conferences. It just helps to separate all work topics from all academic topics. Again, its up to you though.
- small comment - I don't think you need spaces between the dash (-) and the words on each side. If you have a reason for it that I am not aware, by all means keep it the way it is.
I hope these comments provided some new perspective on what is already a very strong resume.
-Chris

Want to turn those job applications into job interviews?
It's all about crafting the perfect resume.
The way you present your work history isn't just important; it can be the crucial reason you get that call back for an interview.
And the ASCE Resume Workshop can help.
Please post your resume in this thread until Friday, March 26. All submitted resumes will be reviewed by coaches and receive a response by March 29 on the thread.
We are accepting resumes only - please do not post a CV. You can find information about the difference here. We also ask that you only submit in a PDF format. Please remember you potential employers may be reviewing resumes in this thread as well. Please submit your best version. This is also a networking opportunity.
Read resume tips from the ASCE Resume Coaches here.
You can find other resume related resources here.
Once you've perfected your resume, I encourage you to post it in ASCE's job board.
****You must be an ASCE member to participate in the workshop.
