AICTE draft policy for mandatory internship
To have option for full term and part-time internship
From the current session an engineering student will have to compulsorily undertake 600 to 700 hours of internship during their four-year B Tech programme while the students enrolled in diploma level engineering programmes will have to complete 450-500 hours of internship, the AICTE has proposed.
According to a draft internship policy and guidelines formulated by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), students will have option to either go for a full-time internship or part time.
Students internship programmes will start from their second semester.
“A minimum of 14-20 credits of internship/entrepreneurial activities/project work/seminar and inter/intra institutional training may be counted toward B Tech degree programme and 10-16 credits for three year diploma programme,” the council proposed in its draft guidelines.
With the council proposing to make one credit equivalent to minimum 40-45 hours of work, a full time intern is expected to spend 40-45 hours per week on internship, training, project work, seminar and other activities.
“This will result in 600 to 700 hours of total internship duration for the B Tech and 450-500 hours of diploma,” the council said.
A student can undertake full-time internship in the summer vacation.
