INTERNSHIP IN ORGANIZATIONS, 2014

THEME
This forms an important ingredient of education at MBA programme of
Bangalore University. It is an attempt to bridge the gap between professional world
and academic institution.

MBA students at the end of 2nd semester have to undergo this programme for the
duration of four weeks. It would be a simulation of real work environment. It
expects the students to experience the rigor of professional environment in form
and substance. It also develops technical, social and communication skills among
students.

ARRANGEMENT

and/or work on a project or problem in an organization for a period of four weeks
during the month of August 2014. It would be carried under the guidance of an
identified executive of the organization and faculty guide.

bodies and Universities.

work done in the organization to the Head of Department through the guides
within two weeks of commencement of 3rd semester. Satisfactory completion of
Internship is an essential requisite for completing MBA programme.
TYPES OF PROJECTS

This is a vehicle for introducing students to real life culture which cannot be
simulated in the classroom. Therefore, the projects must necessarily be those of
direct interest to the host organization. The projects have to be multi-disciplinary
and goal focused. It will be worthwhile if they can also find time bound solution to
the problems/challenges in Marketing, Finance, Human Resources, Systems and
General Organizational profile. This is an addition to a detailed study of the
organization aspects like history, progress, performance, product profile, SWOT, 7s
Framework, industry profile etc.
MONITORING AND EVALUATION

The project has to be finalized by the students in consultation with the identified
executive of the organization and faculty guide. The progress and working of the
students has to be certified by the concerned executive in the prescribed format
(Proforma enclosed).

At the end of the project, the organization has to issue a letter of completion of
internship in their organization. It is advisable for the student to maintain a work
diary. Later on, the faculty would evaluate the report submitted by the student.
