ORIENTATION PROGRAM

The orientation program is aimed at know-your-organization . It is suggested that in a period of

2 to 3 days, the student should become familiar with the organization structure, processes
involved, historical developments, and future expansion programs of the organization etc. They
should visit various departments, shop floors, attend orientation lectures by the organizational
experts, and refer to various annual reports and manuals. The student should become familiar
with the organization in all respects.
SUMMER INTERNSHIP ASSIGNMENTS AND OPEN ENDED PROJECTS
After the completion of the orientation program, depending on the students interest and the
opportunities available in the organization, a student may choose a particular department or
activity or function or an on-going project within the organization. This may later be converted
into a project or assignment. The strength of the internship program and the latent abilities of the
students can be effectively harnessed into these projects or assignments.
ATTENDANCE
The students are required to follow the timings of the organization and attend to their work daily
except on holidays that are applicable to the organization. They should observe all the rules and
regulations, which are applicable to the employees / Summer Interns of the organization.
Students should remember all times that they are representing SSCBS and conduct themselves in
a dignified and professional manner.
CORPORATE GUIDE EVALUATION AND FEEDBACK
Every corporate guide will be requested to evaluate the student as objectively as possible,
comparing him/her with other students of comparable academic level, personnel with similar
experience and job assignments, or professional standards for the position. The industry guide
will also be requested to offer his/her observations on the students potential and performance
along with information on the kinds of work he/she did and the experiences he/she encountered
during internship.

PROJECT REPORT TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE ORGANIZATION

Generally the organization where the student is working asks for submission of a project report,
after the assignment given by the industry guide is over. The students are advised to follow the
guidelines of the organization for submission of the report.

Project Report to Be Submitted at SSCBS

It is the students responsibility to prepare the project report in accordance with the instructions
given in this manual. Once the project work is complete, a final draft is made and the candidate
has to prepare a document for final submission to the academic department for viva voce and a
formal ppt. The dates for submission and viva voce will be announced separately.
Final Evaluation
The final evaluation of the student will depend upon the project report submitted by the student
at SSCBS. It is mandatory for every student to submit summer internship project report at
SSCBS.
Students are advised to strictly follow the format and guidelines for internship project report
GUIDELINES AND FORMAT FOR INTERNSHIP REPORT
The language in which all Project Reports are to be written will be English. This manual also

Characteristics that a Project Report will demonstrate are:

The establishment of a historical context for the presentation of an innovative and

Clarity in composition and careful documentation.
