Check these projects here: goo.gl/arvkXf One question which needs to be answered: If UG students have to spend 6 months/one semester for the internship, what happens to their other courses during this semester in their respective colleges? OR If I do full time internship at IITB what happens to my course work and lectures in my college? This scheme is available for the students who do not have any course work to be done in their colleges. In some cases the colleges require students to do one course at the place of project/internship. This may be possible under CEP model (iitb.ac.in/~cep) provided the project investigator finds value in this and the course instructor allows this.
