Returnships and Gap Internships. Women engineers and meritorious engineering students
who need support or have special needs to fulfill professional aspirations are encouraged to

The GIPEDI Internship is designed differently - it does not just train students to execute
projects, it trains them in project planning, requirements analysis, specification generation,
design iteration management, team work and ethics, behaviour management, team building,
group etiquette and communication skills. Apart from a full set of technology modules, it
also uses specially designed training modules in ethics, history through heritage sensitization
/ heritage walks and lessons from mythology to teach culturally-conscious and effective
engineering practices.
