BBA-B Com Department

SUMMER INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE

Introduction
Internship training is a very vital component of BBA/B Com program; which gives students a bird’s eye
views of the corporate world/civic society and prepares them for the challenges that lie ahead in their
future. Good and sincere work done during this training will facilitate students with their final job
placement, help deliver value to family business, create being a ‘good citizen’ vibes and also prepare for
the future higher education. Summer internship is to enable students to remain in touch with the society
and business world, and gain some practical insight to theoretical concepts learnt during the preceding
academic year.

Internship for BBA and B Com batches is in three parts as follows:

 Part I - For first year students. It will be with a non-governmental organization (NGO) at a
student’s home location. Each student will also participate in a self-driven ‘good citizenship’
campaign.
 Part II – For second year students. The internship will be with small and micro enterprise (SME)
at a student’s own choice location and enterprise.
 Pat III – For third year students. The internship will be with a desired sector/company at a
student’s own choice location.

For continuous guidance of all students, a faculty guide will be allocated. Faculty Guide will be the main
point of link, for the entire duration of summer internship, guidance on reports and final evaluation.

Detailed Instructions:
1. Interns of first year will work with a functional NGO.
2. Second year students will undertake internship with Small or Micro enterprises (SMEs).
3. The duration of internship for first and second year batches is 01 to 30 June. Students are advised to
adhere to this period. Mandatory internship is of four completed weeks.

6. First Year students will also spearhead a ‘responsible citizenship’ campaign in their home town/area.
This can be within the RWA or village/town and even with the support of NGO. This is in addition to
working with the NGOs. Details of ‘ten actionable points’ and background are explained in the
