New Delhi: NIT Goa has invited 30 Goan students from local engineering colleges to intern with the institute. The 30 chosen Goan students will be able to work alongside faculty members and researchers at the institution for 45 days.
NIT Goa will provide flexible timings for these undergraduate students. The opportunity is similar to opportunities offered by all prestigious institutes in the US. They can do the internship over the weekends during the academic year. Completing 45 days of the internship is mandatory for the students. The students will receive an incentive of 4500 INR for working 45 days of the internship.
Gopal Mugeraya, NIT Goa director, has said “There are many brilliant students studying in local engineering colleges, but often seek employment soon after completing their engineering programme. We want to get such students interested in research. The programme is specially designed to benefit Goan students. I believe that research should be an integral part of the teaching-learning process and the SIP is an effort in this direction.”
