Internship opportunities for PU students at NIE in Mysuru
The NIE Incubation Centre, a hub for nurturing innovation and entrepreneurship at the National Institute of Engineering (NIE), Mysuru, has partnered with the Idea Lab to create a platform for Pre-University (PU) students to explore and develop their interests in science, technology, engineering, and entrepreneurship.
The initiative is aimed at providing early exposure to real-world innovation ecosystems and bridging the gap between academic learning and practical application, according to NIE.
Through this internship programme, the PU students gain hands-on experience in areas such as product design and prototyping, innovation and problem solving, entrepreneurial thinking, basic engineering concepts, and mentoring by industry experts and faculty.
Students are guided by mentors from the NIE and professionals from industry, working on live projects and problem statements that spark creativity and critical thinking. The Idea Lab brings in modern tools and facilities such as 3D printers, CNC machines, IoT kits, and electronics workbenches to support this learning journey, a press release stated.
Overall, the programme aims to empower young minds to innovate, collaborate, and build foundational skills that will be valuable in their higher education and future careers.
'Internships provide valuable early exposure to real-world engineering environments, helping students gain practical skills and better understand their interests. For PU students, internships can be an excellent way to explore different fields, build a foundational network, and develop soft skills such as communication, teamwork, and time management,' the release noted.
The internship is between June 2 and June 30. For registration, interested students shall contact Harshith Divakar on 95388 44373/ 94830 40004/ 87222 66622.
