Objective of Summer Internship
• Summer Internship is an integral part of the academic
curriculum of most of the programmes.
• It aims at widening the student’s perspective by providing an
exposure to real life organizational and environmental
situations.
• This enables the students to explore an industry/organization,
build a relationship with a prospective employer, or simply
enhance their skills in a familiar field.
• The internship also provides invaluable knowledge and
networking experience to the students. Ideally the duration of
the industry internship is six to eight weeks. However, in some
cases this period could be extended, but not more than eight
weeks.
 METHODOLOGY

•The student SIP will provide broad area of

NTCC course before start of semester to
respective course coordinator/faculty guide
•However, within ten days after joining the
organisation the student will work on the topic,
synopsis and work schedule of his/her project
under the guidance of external supervisor and
faculty guide.

he/she will discuss with the external guide and
finalise the same in order to meet the Course
Objectives (COs) and Learning Out comes (LOs) in

experimental data should typically be represented
by centered symbols, and theoretical data by
continuous curves.

18 tables in chapter 3 the table numbers run from table
3.1 through table 3.18.
• Make sure that figures and tables are complete in other
respects such as legends, references (if any) and
coordinate labels with units. Each figure and table must
be explicitly referred to in the text and located where its
first reference occurs, preferably after the reference.

preceding material. References should be in
alphabetical order.
• This should include papers and books referred to in the
body of the report. These should be ordered
alphabetically on the author's surname. The titles of
journals preferably should not be abbreviated; if they
