About Remote Digital Internship Program

An internship is now recognized as a necessary part of every engineering program to enable students to learn to apply their learning in college and become familiar with the workings of the larger industry. This was till now a choice that students exercised to improve their own employability. According to the recent ‘AICTE’s Model Internship’ document, an internship is a necessary program in the overall engineering education.

However, students and colleges are constrained with capacity at organizations, varying academic schedules, and learning skills in doing internships. Software Engineering Research Center (SERC), IIIT Hyderabad’s Remote Digital Internship Program (RDIP) aims to address these constraints by providing opportunities to students to work on live open source projects.

RDIP is one month internship program and open to all pursuing or have completed graduation with willingness to program. The program provides resources and mentoring mechanism to learn and contribute to open source projects on Github.

Internship is a first step in preparing the students for enhancing coding and problem-solving skills. The intent of this internship is to induct students into work, participate in Hackathons and Codeathons, and become more employable.
