General Guidelines for Internship under FYUGP Scheme :
  • Each department should constitute an internal committee to oversee internship proceedings. Ideally, this committee would include the Head of Department (HOD), the Class Teacher/ the internship coordinator, and a Faculty Guide (if necessary).
  • An internship coordinator is to be selected for each department. (First-year class teachers are preferred.)
  • It is the duty of the constituted committee of each department to suggest and approve the list of laboratories, companies, organizations, and other institutions in which students can undertake their internships. Students are not allowed to do internships in any other establishments that have not been approved by the aforementioned committee.
  • The time period to complete the internship course falls between the 1st semester and the 5th semester. Students can do their internships during vacations or holidays.
  • Students should be engaged in the specific organization for either 60 hours or 120 hours, as stipulated in their syllabus, in order to complete the internship.
  • Before starting their internship, students must obtain approval from the respective Departments (request letters should be submitted and the departments must maintain it for evaluation purpose)
  • A logbook must be maintained by all students who are undertaking internships. It should contain a column for marking attendance, details of the visit (description), the signature of the company/institutional supervisor, and the signature of the class tutor.
  • Semester-wise meetings must be conducted in the department to evaluate the progress of the students.
  • After completion of the internship, a final report must be submitted to the department by the students for evaluation.
  • Students should ensure that their internship certificates adhere to a standardized format (can be suggested by the committee). They must submit this format to the respective organizations, which will issue certificates upon successful completion of the internship.
  • Internship evaluation and other procedures should be conducted in accordance with the 4-year UG Degree norms. Details about the internship need to be sent to the higher authorities or the University, as the case may be, when needed. Records of the same should be kept in the departments for future reference.
