Introduction: The Real Deal Behind Mandatory Internships

The initiative to include as part of the degree requirements may seem a bit overwhelming, at least to a few. However, this move is to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application that many students lack when they step into the job market as freshers. With such initiatives, students gain skills and exposure to thrive in the tech industry and increase their chances of getting placed.

The major hurdle for final year students is to find credible, flexible, and impactful internship opportunities during a crucial time, as the final year, when they have to balance academics, projects, and other responsibilities. This is where online opportunities come into the picture, which are as valid as internships, with certifications that are internationally acclaimed and valid. If you are a KTU final-year student looking for internship opportunities, then Entri’s courses with Illinois Tech certification are the best option for you to get a decisive edge over others.
