AVEVA’s Graduate Technical Scheme 2014 – Internship for Engineering Students

Engineering internship is one of the best ways to get engineering experience outside of college. With all the advancements in technology, engineers are going to be continued to be needed, Mechanical engineers are always going to be in demand employers are always on the lookout for the best and brightest minds, equipped with employable skills.

In India, now many companies are offering the internships, they may be summer internship, trainee jobs for limited period or project based internship. Type does not matter much; they offer you on-the-job experience is more important. Help you know better whether you and the industry are a good match, and provide you with a valuable connections and references. Most engineering students remain unemployed because the syllabus doesn’t match the employers expectations, so many companies are coming forward and offering internships to bridge the gap between academia and the industry.

Previously, when no internship was offered the fresh engineering graduates were very confused in selecting a job that would interest them for life. If someone starts working as a production manager after passing his BE, and after working for 1 – 2 years he may not be interested in doing it for life time, he may find his friends working in CAD, CAE, PLM more interesting. Internships are the best if you want to avoid future confusion and select right career path.

For specialized industries, such as aerospace engineering, manufacturing and electronics, internships remain one of the most rewarding and enlightening opportunities students and post graduates can utilize. It also benefits companies to understand intern, his potentials and decide on the future employment.

The internship programs generally offer less salary compared to the company employees, but one must keep in mind the experience he is getting is much more valuable than the compensation he is getting. 

On top of all of this, as an engineering intern you’ll get a chance to see how an entire engineering company works, you will earn large knowledge and opportunity of working with diverse fields. Nearly 80 percent of employers view internships as the new way to find full-time hires, and 70 percent of internships culminate with a full-time offer from that same employer.
