Maximising productivity and learnability in internships

While technical internships as a scheme are considered positive for both the intern and the hosting organisation, carrying out a successful internship session is not neither easy nor trivial. Towards managing an internship, we adopt an Agile-based framework that consists of four phases with a mixture of research, technical and communication tasks and covers the full project lifecycle providing good exposure to a range of professional practices. This framework is flexible to accommodate changes in preferences of an intern and includes a large variety of communication tasks such as project plan generation, technical progress reporting, generation and presentation of ideas and competitive analysis, along with technical tasks for instance Test Driven design and programming, development with C++ and code revision. Apart from interns, the hosting body benefits from the work of the interns which is reliable and of acceptable quality.
