Programme outline
Summer internship and Major Research Project Students will be required to register for a summer internship for a period of 8 weeks in an external organization. Most importantly, the Major Research Project in Semester 4 would be a core requirement earning 15 credits. Detailed project guidelines would be available to the students for meeting course requirements for the summer internship and major research projects.
These projects, carried out with the student housed in the host organization, will provide the students with a forum to focus on sustainable development challenges in industry and civil society, and participate in the analysis and the problem solving process. Each internship period will culminate in a cross-disciplinary seminar where the students will be evaluated on their problem solving ability along with learning from the exercise regarding cross-disciplinary linkages, the importance of context in defining sustainable development challenges, and key management issues.
