Summer Internships

RCI conducts full time Summer Research Programme (SRP) for about 60 students every year during summer vacations from May to June end for a period of minimum 45 days to maximum 60 days. Training is given on some of the selected research areas relevant to ARCI's ongoing R&D programmes. Initially students are divided into 5-6 batches, comprising of about 6-8 students per batch, to undergo orientation for about one week. After completion of the orientation, each individual student is assigned to a scientist. Under the guidance of the scientist, each student is expected to carry out an independent mini project. Students are allotted projects depending on ARCI's requirement and availability of the projects in areas of relevance to ARCI. At the end of the programme, students have to submit a report detailing the research work carried out. All students whose performance is satisfactory are issued a participation certificate upon submission of the report. Students who have completed their first year of M.Tech./M.E./M.Sc. or 2nd/3rd year of B.Tech./B.E. or equivalent are eligible to apply. If the students are interested they may approach for their final year project work also. The main aim of such a programme is to inculcate interest in the young minds to opt research as their career.http://www.arci.res.in/summer-Internships

Guidelines for Summer/ Vocational Training at IIP

The students of engineering colleges are required to carry out project work as a pre-requisite for completion of their B.E./ B Tech, M. Tech/ M.Sc degree for a period of 6 months duration. Projects of interest to CSIR-IIP are given to the students so that while students are exposed to the latest technological developments while working on real life sponsored projects. CSIR-IIP too benefits from the project work.

Since CSIR-IIP receives a very large number of requests from IITs, NITs, Universities, Colleges and individuals for imparting summer / vocational training to their students/wards from different disciplines/areas. This not only overburdens institute’s infrastructure but sometimes also adversely affects the R&D programmes. In order to streamline procedure for acceptance of such requests following guidelines are framed.
