day life. CO5. DEVELOP network and social circle, and DEVELOPING relationships with
industry people.
CO6. ANALYZE various career opportunities and DECIDE career goals.
Guidelines
Internships are educational and career development opportunities, providing practical experience in
a field or discipline. Internships are far more important as the employers are looking for employees
who are properly skilled and having awareness about industry environment, practices and culture.
Internship is structured, short-term, supervised training often focused around particular tasks or
projects with defined time scales.
Core objective is to expose technical students to the industrial environment, which cannot be
simulated/experienced in the classroom and hence creating competent professionals in the industry
and to understand the social, economic and administrative considerations that influence the working
environment of industrial organizations.
39 | P a g e
Engineering internships are intended to provide students with an opportunity to apply conceptual
knowledge from academics to the realities of the field work/training. The following guidelines are
proposed to give academic credit for the internship undergone as a part of the Third Year
Engineering curriculum
Duration:
Internship is to be completed after semester 5 and before commencement of semester 6 of at least 4
to 6 weeks; and it is to be assessed and evaluated in semester 6.
Internship work Identification:
Student may choose to undergo Internship at Industry/Govt. Organizations/NGO/MSME/Rural
Internship/ Innovation/IPR/Entrepreneurship. Student may choose either to work on innovation or
entrepreneurial activities resulting in start-up or undergo internship with
industry/NGO’s/Government organizations/Micro/Small/ Medium enterprises to make themselves
ready for the industry. Students must get Internship proposals sanctioned from college authority
well in advance. Internship work identification process should be initiated in the Vth semester in
coordination with training and placement cell/ industry institute cell/ internship cell. This will help
students to start their internship work on time. Also, it will allow students to work in vacation
period after their Vth semester examination and before academic schedule of semester VI. Student
can take internship work in the form of the following but not limited to:
1. Working for consultancy/ research project.
2. Contribution in Incubation/ Innovation/ Entrepreneurship Cell/ Institutional Innovation Council/
startups cells of institute.

9. NGOs or Social Internships, rural internship, 10. Participate in open source development.
Internship Diary/ Internship Workbook:
Students must maintain Internship Diary/ Internship Workbook. The main purpose of maintaining
diary/workbook is to cultivate the habit of documenting. The students should record in the daily
training diary the day-to-day account of the observations, impressions, information gathered and
suggestions given, if any. The training diary/workbook should be signed every day by the
supervisor. Internship Diary/workbook and Internship Report should be submitted by the students
along with attendance record and an evaluation sheet duly signed and stamped by the industry to
the Institute immediately after the completion of the training.
Internship Work Evaluation:
Every student is required to prepare and maintain documentary proofs of the activities done by him
as internship diary or as workbook. The evaluation of these activities will be done by Program
Head/Cell In-charge/ Project Head/ faculty mentor or Industry Supervisor based on- Overall
compilation of internship activities, sub-activities, the level of achievement expected, evidence
needed to assign the points and the duration for certain activities. Assessment and Evaluation is to
be done in consultation with internship supervisor (Internal and External – a supervisor from place
of internship. Recommended evaluation parameters-

GUIDELINES FOR CONDUCTION OF AUDIT COURSE
Faculty mentor shall be allotted for individual courses and he/she shall monitor the progress
for successful accomplishment of the course. Such monitoring is necessary for ensuring that
the concept of self-learning is being pursued by the students ‘in true letter and spirit’.
• If any course through Swayam/ NPTEL/ virtual platform is selected the minimum duration shall
be of 8 weeks.
• However if any of the course duration is less than the desired (8 weeks) the mentor shall ensure
that other activities in form of assignments, quizzes, group discussion etc. (allied with the course)
for the balance duration should be undertaken.
In addition to credits courses, it is mandatory that there should be an audit course (non-credit
course) from third year of Engineering. The student will be awarded grade as AP on successful
completion of the audit course. The student may opt for any one of the audit courses in each
semester. Such audit courses can help the student to get awareness of different issues which make an
impact on human lives and enhance their skill sets to improve their employability. List of audit
courses offered in the semester is provided in the curriculum. Students can choose one of the audit
courses from the list of courses mentioned. Evaluation of the audit course will be done at institute
level.
The student registered for audit course shall be awarded the grade AP and shall be included such
grade in the Semester grade report for that course, provided student has the minimum attendance as
prescribed by the Savitribai Phule Pune University and satisfactory in-semester performance and
secured a passing grade in that audit course. No grade points are associated with this 'AP' grade and
performance in these courses is not considered in the calculation of the performance indices SGPA
and CGPA. Evaluation of the audit course will be done at institute level itself.
Selecting an Audit Course

List of Courses to be opted (Any one) under Audit Course VI
• Business and Sustainable Development
• Management Information System
• International Business
# The titles indicated above are subject to change in time to come and such an alteration (if any)
should be brought to the notice of the BOS.

NPTEL is an initiative by MHRD to enhance learning effectiveness in the field of technical
education by developing curriculum based video courses and web based e-courses. The details of
NPTEL courses are available on its official website www.nptel.ac.in
• Students can select any one of the courses mentioned above and has to register for the
corresponding online course available on the NPTEL platform as an Audit course.
44 | P a g e
• Once the course is completed the student can appear for the examination as per the
guidelines on the NPTEL portal.
• After clearing the examination successfully; student will be awarded with a certificate.
Assessment of an Audit Course

• The assessment of the course will be done at the institute level. The institute has to maintain
the record of the various audit courses opted by the students. The audit course opted by the
students could be interdisciplinary.
• During the course students will be submitting the online assignments. A copy of the same
can be submitted as a part of term work for the corresponding Audit course.
• On the satisfactory submission of assignments, the institute can mark as “Present” and the
