- CSIR project-staff roles — provide a pathway into research/contract work, possibly a stepping stone toward full-time research or academic career.
- Short-term internships at CFTRI — good for students seeking practical research experience, even if they’re not in final year.
📝 What You Should Do Now
- Visit each organisation’s official website (e.g. CFTRI, ISRO, CSIR) to download the full advertisement/notification and check eligibility, documents required, application procedure.
- Prepare a CV / résumé highlighting relevant academic background, projects, and any interest in research; for internships clearly mention availability period & motivation.
- For internship schemes that accept students from colleges/universities, get a recommendation letter or certificate from your department (often required).
- Keep track of deadlines — many of these are short windows (e.g. CFTRI’s 14–28 Nov), so apply early rather than waiting until the last day.
- For space/engineering internships (e.g. ISRO), ensure your academic percentage/CGPA threshold is met before applying.
