What is meant by internships in engineering colleges

Dear aspirant,

Certain universities like MUMBAI UNIVERSITY has made it mandatory for college students to do 3 internships. Now when a college provides internship, it is called college internships. Usually for a period of 1-6 months depending on the branch and year, the college does tie up with other companies and gets their students to work for a minimum pay or sometimes no pay for experience.

Note in an internship in engineering the certificate of experience is much more important than the pay.

Those who complete internships have a greater chance of getting placed in companies with ease

Dear Student,

Internship also called as training, means to get in the industrial environment/get exposure of day to day industrial work and how it is carried out. Internship is Very Important phase of any engineer's life . In this system You are allowed to go to a company (Related to your Branch !) and took a training for 60 days (days may vary from college to college.) . In companies You Learn about the working procedure . you come across how company manages to benefit us . The most important thing is that what have you learnt in those days

Hello manjunath,

An internship is a temporary work placements ( sometimes a few months over a summer break,  some times part timr work throughout your degree) it might be paid or unpaid.

Engineering is a very broad feild,  so you need to narrow your targets down first, for eg.  A civil engineer may do CAD drafting,  road ro bridge construction inspection or specification writing.

Hope it will help

All the best for future.

Hello student,

An internship is a temporary work placement – sometimes a few months over a summer break, sometimes part-time work throughout your degree. It might be paid, usually at an hourly rate, or unpaid, in which case you should at least expect some expenses (such as food and travel to work) to be covered.
