Summer Internships
Summer Internships take place between April and June, when students take up projects for a period of 8-10 weeks in reputed companies. Apart from giving the students valuable experience of working in real-life business scenarios, the internships also enable the students to apply classroom learning to the real world. Companies gain from the fresh insights that the students bring in to the real life business problems. Our students have proven time and again that they are genuine solution providers in the corporate arena.
