Yes, BITS Goa offers international 2-months internships for PS-1, 6 months duration for the single degree, and 1-year for the dual degree. For the master courses, you can decide between Thesis and PS-2 when they reach the final semester. 

The internship is provided through a list of companies in which a student needs to fill up the preferences and then based on the aggregate or CGPA, the internships would be allotted.

Practice School-1:

  • It is of 2 months duration after the second year for the single degree students and third year for the dual degree students in the summer term.
  • Reputed companies offer internships such as BARC, CEERI, NPCIL, etc but the chances of abroad PS station is less. 

Practice School-2:

  • It is available in the final year for both the single and dual degree courses. 
  • The companies in PS-2 offer internships abroad but that depends on various parameters including the branch, projects, availability, and other factors by the companies. 
  • They will ask you if you want to complete your internships in the same company be it on-campus or off-campus. 
  • If you receive an offer from a company not mentioned in the Practice-School list, then you can pursue it as an off-campus thesis. You can request any faculty to be your mentor but it requires proper planning.

What is it like to do an internship at ISB Hyderabad?

RS
Radhika Srivastava Posted On : February 14th, 2023
Worked at Indian School of Business

The Indian School of Business (ISB), Hyderabad provides a stimulating and friendly environment for interns, with many opportunities for networking and professional development. The school hosts a variety of seminars and guest lectures, which can be valuable for making connections and learning about different industries. One intern was able to secure an internship at General Electric by approaching a panelist at a seminar. Additionally, ISB Hyderabad is a great choice for those interested in starting their own business, as the campus offers resources and support for entrepreneurs.

Interns at ISB Hyderabad typically engage in data collection, research, and analysis as part of their work. The nature and scope of the work can vary depending on the project and the professor's goals. For example, an intern may be tasked with conducting web research and summarizing their findings, or they may be involved in more in-depth analysis and insight generation. The work may seem tedious at first, but it is an essential skill for a career in management consulting. Interns are encouraged to be creative and have frequent discussions with their professors.

The ISB Hyderabad campus is beautiful and well-maintained, with plenty of green spaces and areas for relaxation. There are also ample options for food and leisure activities. The only downside is that the school does not provide on-campus accommodation for interns.

How can I get a summer internship at IIM Indore under Prof. Siddhartha K. Rastogi?

RJ
Rekha Jain Posted On : August 31st, 2021
Studies IPM from Indian Institute of Management Indore (2022)

One of my friends was a student of Mr. Siddharth K. Rastogi. He mentored my cousin while he was working on some projects.

He has worked on topics related to Public Policy, Trade and WTO, Tourism, China, Sports Analytics, and Bird-watching. Mr. Rastogi needs students with excellent writing and editorial skills, specifically academic writing and with excellent statistical analysis.

You must also look up some other professors as well with probably a better record in research. The general perception is that such internships are meaningless and might be useful only if you are amongst the top 1%.

What cutoff (CPI) does Goldman Sachs keep for ECE students in internships at MNNIT Allahabad?

SB
Sourav Bera Posted On : April 24th, 2021
MNNIT Allahabad

My cousin belongs to the 2020 batch of B.tech at MNNIT Allahabad. Goldman Sachs visited the campus for an internship for their batch. The general selection criteria for this internship are:

  • You must belong to either of these branches: BTech All, MCA, MSc
  • You must have a CPI of 5 or above

If you are preparing for getting selected at Goldman Sachs, just focus on your problem-solving and coding skills. Also in their technical round, you will be asked Quant questions that are very hard if you lack practice in that. Yes, Quant questions are the type of questions that are asked in CAT exams.

However, it is quite common to see students with a CPI of 8 or higher being selected most. This is the harsh truth, thus you might see your name in the first shortlist but not in the second list as your CPI is lower. Hence, work hard enough to get a CPI of 8 or higher and emphasize more and more on your coding skills as the coding exam for Goldman is very tough.

What are the summer internships at the IIT Kharagpur for students from other colleges?

NG
Nikhil Goal Posted On : March 27th, 2023
Mechanical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP)

Unlike other IITs, IIT Kharagpur has no specific portal for outside students to apply for summer internships. Now the question arises, in the absence of a specific portal how do students apply for internships? 

Well, the official website of IIT KGP has a faculty section containing information on the research work of faculty of various departments. There is a lot of information on their experience level, personal information, and ongoing projects. Based on your own interests, you can contact the professor whose work intrigues you the most.

The next step is to make a good resume including all your project activities and subject-specific knowledge. Include the SOP, mention why you chose IIT KGP, that specific area, and your future goals. Send this resume to the email address of the professor you wish to intern under.

Lastly, don’t lose hope if you don’t get replies immediately, and stay consistent.

Is there any type of internship program available at LNCT Bhopal?

AH
Anusha Hegde Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
B.Tech from Lakshmi Narain College of Technology, Bhopal in 2020

The Training and Placement department of LNCT provides internship opportunities but the same cannot be said for the IT department, sadly.

However, if you are looking for internship opportunities, the institute may disappoint you. To get maximum exposure, you can try participating in extracurricular activities. Some of the companies do offer internships based on your level of interest and assign roles like Assistant Officer, beginner roles among other roles.

If you want to become a student of civil engineering, Autocad and other related internships are included in the course. You can get them done on your own with help from the institute.
