Guidelines for Long-term internship


1. Long term internship is an opportunity through which students can apply academic knowledge
gained from their coursework in the workplace. Students enrich their educational experience
through practical work in an organization. A student may have multiple internships (6 months), as
long as each internship is linked to the student's educational goals. The student may improve

of engineering second year (E2 SEM-II). The duration of an internship is a minimum of three
months, extendable to two years.

RGUKT ensures the alignment of long-term internships with students' educational goals by allowing multiple internships only if they are integrally linked to students’ academic guidance. The Career Development & Placement Cell (CDPC) elaborates on how internships will contribute towards educational goals and future career aspirations, ensuring practical experience complements academic learning .

RGUKT ensures the quality of summer internships through a dual evaluation system comprising external evaluation for 60 marks and internal evaluation for 40 marks. Moreover, Head of Departments constitutes summer internship evaluation boards which include faculty members from different departments to assess the internship comprehensively. The board has the authority to reject internships that don't meet specified requirements, compelling students to repeat the internship if necessary .

At RGUKT, faculty advisors are allocated to students at the end of the E2 semester, specifically for managing summer internships. This process is intended to be completed by March 31st each year. The Head of Department is responsible for allocating advisors, who will guide students in selecting appropriate internships .

RGUKT supports students in seeking internships directly by allowing them to inform the Head of Department (HOD) and the Career Development & Placement Cell (CDPC) once they secure an offer. This collaborative approach ensures that all internships align with academic goals and maintains a structured process for formalizing the internships within the university framework .

The Career Development & Placement Cell (CDPC) at RGUKT interacts with various companies to explore long-term internship opportunities. CDPC briefs organizations about the strengths of institutional resources and prepares internship proposals delineating how the internships can impart new knowledge and aid in future career goals. CDPC also assists in formalizing internships sourced either directly by students or through the cell itself .

During internships at RGUKT, a student's mini project is evaluated by considering it part of the internship work. For projects, 40% of the marks are given by the external guide, while the remaining 60% are awarded by an academic committee constituted by the HOD. The external guide conducts online examinations, contributing to the 60 marks evaluation framework .

If a student is found to be misbehaving during internships, a report is required to be submitted and disciplinary action is initiated. Faculty must communicate with company guides to ensure thorough supervision and compliance with internship standards .

RGUKT facilitates student engagement in challenging and relevant internship tasks by advising students to select internships that align with their field of engineering. Students are encouraged to solve societal problems, apply theoretical knowledge in practical scenarios, and undertake projects that require critical analysis and meaningful data collection . Faculty advisors help students in selecting suitable internships that offer ample field knowledge and practical applications .

RGUKT mandates that course content, including MOOC courses, video lectures, and other educational resources, be made available to students during their internships. Course instructors are responsible for these provisions, which include lecture notes, soft copies of textbooks, and online discussion forums. In the absence of existing video lectures, faculty are encouraged to develop new video content .
