INTRODUCTION
The Summer Internship Project (SIP) forms an important component of education
at PIMR, Indore. It is an attempt to bridge the gap between the academic
institution and corporate world. Under this, the students must undertake 6 weeks
training at any organization during the Intervening period between close of
Semester II and commencement of Semester III. The training, which would be a
simulation of real work environment, requires the students to undergo the rigor of
professional environment both in form and substance. It exposes them to technical
skills, and helps them to acquire social skills by drawing them into contact with
real professionals.
For proper coordination and ensuring organized and smooth conduct, each student
will also be guided by Faculty of the institute. A representative of the
industry/organization also guides the student and assists the faculty in monitoring
the student's progress.

student is not in a position to report to the SIP organization on any day, he/she
should obtain formal permission for leave of absence as per the rules and
4
regulations of the SIP organization. Permission should also be taken from the
Faculty Guide.
Conduct and Behaviour
The students during SIP are placed in the role of ambassadors of PIMR. The
Institute would always expect students to maintain professional and social
imprints of high standards in the organization.
PIMR expects the students to abide by the rules and regulations of the place of
work during training. It is particularly important to be regular, punctual and well
mannered at work. During the period of training the student shall be subject to the
leave rules of the SIP organization and should ensure strict adherence to the
timings of the organization.
Unprofessional behaviour, misconduct, indiscipline, irregularity at work and
unsatisfactory performance will lead to cancellation of SIP. Students may also not
be permitted to register in Semester III resulting in the loss of at least one
academic year. Besides this, any other form of academic action PIMR might deem
fit to impose.
7. FACULTY GUIDANCE
Every student is assigned a Faculty Guide at the beginning of the SIP. The role of
the Faculty Guide is to enable the student to undertake a meaningful project,
provide the necessary academic guidance, and to facilitate evaluation, along with
the aid of the company guide, while SIP is in progress. The Faculty Guide will be
involved at all stages of the project.
During these interactions, the student would be informed about his/her
performance, progress in the project, his/her strengths and weaknesses as
observed through various evaluation components and also ways for improvement.
However, the student also has the responsibility to seek clarification from the
respective faculty on all the above aspects regularly.
Students must facilitate the meeting of Faculty Guide and the Company Guide
regularly. This would help the Faculty Guide to assess the student's progress in
his/her respective project and the quality and quantity of work put in by the
student. These meetings would also help the Faculty Guide to judge the behaviour
of the students in the organization, and the relationship the student maintains with
the other executives/ staff of the organization.
A student must discuss with the faculty the progress made in his/ her work and
also seek clarification of any doubts related to his/her work with the Company
Guide and professional experts.
IMPORTANT TIPS
• Before beginning your assignment check if any of your seniors had earlier.
undergone SIP at the same organization. If yes, do collect the report
submitted by those trainees and study them carefully. Copies of such reports
would be available at PIMR.
• Apart from providing an exposure to real work situations, the SIP is also an
opportunity of learning the art of information/data identification,
classification, acquisition, processing and presentation.
• Projects under the SIP could be of a significant importance to the host
organization -in terms of their objective of "Technical Documentation"
aiming at updating or modernization of information systems etc. Therefore,
proper care should be taken while documenting the project. The Faculty
Guide may be consulted for any problems faced during the process.
• The project reports submitted by the students must be prepared by
themselves. Any resemblance of the project report will be dealt very
seriously and the student will not be awarded any marks for the same.
