Institutional research project Internships (IRP-Internships)

University funds and supports faculty-led long-term research projects that work on emerging technologies. The ‘Institutional Research Projects (IRP)’ aims to advance promising research, technologies, and product ideas around a theme of future relevance. The fund encourages interdisciplinary collaboration and active engagement of postgraduate and undergraduate students. The undergraduate students can join these IRP groups as interns, gain exposure to such cutting-edge technologies, and ingrain the conceptual, inquiry, critical thinking, creativity, and integrative learning skills needed to develop a research mindset.
