SUMMER INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
ICFAI Business School is unique in its approach towards practical training. IBS designed Summer Internship Program (SIP) for 10-14 weeks and integrated it into the curriculum. IBS felt that this approach was necessary as most of the students joining a management program in India have no work experience and therefore limited exposure to the corporate environment through SIP would make them better equipped to take on the real-life business challenges
Unlike most other B-Schools, SIP is an integral part of the curriculum at IBS with close supervision from the faculty. SIP was institutionalised as a very important process that provided a platform for the students to tackle real-life projects. The 10-14 weeks format, gave enough scope for the students to learn more by taking and completing a meaningful, value-added project for the company. SIP emphasised rigorous faculty monitoring system ensuring that the projects are done by the students to the satisfaction of the senior management of the company. Such efforts have strengthened IBS’ relationship with the industry and paved the way for pre-placement offers.
MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
IBS offers a mentorship program to students, both by Faculty and Alumni members. The faculty members mentor students throughout the program.
