Summer Internship Program (SIP)

The Summer Internship Programme (SIP) at the institute places the students for an 8-week long internship after their second semester and before their third semester. The major goals of the SIP are as follows:

• Gain a thorough understanding of their specific domain.
• Recognize the job profiles that fall under their domain and the skill sets that are required.
• Get corporate experience so that they are prepared to begin their careers.

The students are placed in various industries, firms and companies for eight weeks during the summer. The internship not only bridges the gap between theory and practise, but also improves the skill sets and knowledge necessary to succeed in the corporate world. Students also get the opportunity to have a greater grasp of the corporate world, to work as part of a team, and to comprehend what their customers and clients want from them. The students are not only taught how to learn, but also how to perform in an organisation in order to receive a Pre-Placement Offer (PPO), which improves their chances for a placement.

After their internships are over, the students make presentations before the corporate heads, in which they exhibit their work or project undertaken during the internship. Students are evaluated for the skills they acquired and the information they received during the internship, but also on how they contributed to the company’s success through their work. The presentations and the question and answer sessions that follow help the students develop practical knowledge and confidence.
