An internship is beneficial for students, exposing them to industrial environments that cannot be replicated in a classroom. It is a means for providing opportunities to acquire and refine analytical and managerial skills crucial for a professional career. Through an internship, students get hands-on experience in teamwork, thereby enhancing professional skills like communication, work ethics, conflict resolution, etc., with a lasting impact on lifelong learning and professional development. It also helps in establishing links between students and potential future job or research opportunities.
