A structured work experience related to a
student's major and/or career goal

An experience that should enhance a student's
academic, career, and personal development

An experience that is mutually agreed upon by
the student, supervisor and/or faculty member

internship. Internships might also be called a practicum or co-op.
Benefits of Summer Training
One of
the recurring themes in any entry level job search is the lack of experience
factor. "Where do I get experience if no one is willing to hire me?"
The answer is simple: Get an internship!
Students
planning to enter the permanent work force should complement their academic
preparation with a range of other experiences, such as study abroad, community
service, undergraduate research experiences, participation in sports and other
student organizations, membership in pre-professional organizations, and
internships.
Summer Training NOIDA offers you the chance to learn by doing in a setting where you are
supervised by a work-place professional, and have the opportunity to achieve
your own learning goals, without the responsibilities of being a permanent
employee.
An
internship also offers you the opportunity to work with someone who can become
a mentor for you - not only in the internship, but throughout your career.
